In response to another fake psychological fact, Inna Kanevsky had this to say"

"How about three signs you shouldn't be talking about psychology on TikTok. One, you are exploiting other people's mental health for your own clout. Two, you do not provide evidence for any of your claims. Three, you actively block people who ask for evidence for your claims. How about, please stop, thank you."
