An aphorism intended to be used by any intellectual to tell someone to get to know their subject better before spreading outright BS.
Unfortunately, the phrase has more often than not been abused by internet trolls, zealots and narcissists as a hilariously hypocritical thought-terminating cliché. If used by trolls, they will go even further and link the same exact sources that you would have used against them, thereby deliberately angering you even more.
This phrase can also be used satirically, facetiously or sarcastically. In this case that is totally fine.
