The internet vs. scientific history in one perfect comparison! Make one tiny mistake online and you'll have 47 corrections within seconds. Meanwhile, Aristotle casually dropped the "heavier objects fall faster" theory and everyone just nodded along for 2,000 years until Galileo finally thought "hmm, maybe I should check that" and revolutionized physics. The scientific method was apparently on a very long coffee break. Next time someone corrects your typo in 0.3 seconds, remind them that humanity once went multiple millennia believing rocks fall faster than feathers because a Greek dude said so.
