You can trust unions. They're there to make money and acting in your interest is acting in their best interest.

While you can trust science overall, there's a hell of a lot of capitalism in there, muddying the water. Well-reviewed studies are generally pretty safe.

There is nothing inherently trustworthy or untrustworthy about socialism; it's an economic and political philosophy that is only as trustworthy as the people implementing and operating within it.

You cannot trust anything on the internet, including Wikipedia or even this very post. There are actors with an agenda that can make every article better or worse. There is no verifiable truth, only facts through lenses, and Wiki, being a moderated system, is as fallible as anything else. Much like socialism, it is at least designed to make it more fair.
