I would say to pick something you care about and stick to that. Read any articles and then look to accompanying markets or ideas and read about them too as they pertain to the original thing you want to know about. You can’t know everything and even trying to know everything can be confusing and daunting. Also, learn about relevant things that pertain to your life as going out into the void for the sake of what’s popular can be worthless. For instance if you’re interested in the problems of the Middle East but can’t really do much about it or be apart of it, it can feel overwhelming vs you’re interested in electric vehicles or green energy, that is something you can get involved in and make real connections with. It’s better to worry about the things that you can possibly have an impact with or is relevant to you as that’s what can give a level of purpose you can’t get with just knowing random facts that you can do anything with except talk about at a party.

They specialise, often the idea of asking “a scientist” about something unless you ask someone in the specific field they won’t have a clue about the subject. Recently there has been a clueless heart surgeon offering his opinion on vaccines and viruses and proved he knew nothing about either.

Mostly by journalism. Publications in scientific journals. Even if it seems that a lot of research is coming out daily there are long processes of peer reviewing and validation.

Research about what? I try to be up to date in my specific field, but I only know the basics or surface of many other things.
Reading news, magazines, watching videos, listening to podcasts is the way to harness some knowledge.
