## Resource

When tragedy strikes, especially in Guyana, the rush to know everything—before any official investigation—turns ordinary people into self-appointed experts. Social media influencers, bus riders, and random bystanders all claim insider knowledge, from cops to cotton-wool boats, fueled by a primal need for answers and the ego boost of being “the one who knows.” This frenzy, amplified by confirmation bias and viral rumors, distracts from real justice and damages reputations. In moments like the M.V. Barima disaster, truth demands patience, evidence, and an independent inquiry—not gossip or hype.
