yes, i have stopped checking false flags, they all have the same m.o., same media coverage, same lack of evidence for what they are saying, yet the majority still take them at face value and believe what they are being told.
it's interesting that you say the claim is outrageous - don't get me wrong, there obviously are, but not when it comes to countering the government/ media narrative.
i take the msm's claims as outrageous until i see actual evidence which supports their claims. most of the time it simply is not there when you cooly, rationally examine the evidence.
there is a great guy on yt who does this, uk critical thinker, calmly discussing points and patiently de-constructing false flag narratives - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVj1-27YBWKTQKqubFVQyhg/videos
