wdym by ‘dream lying poisoned the well’?

the claim that "dreamlying poisoned the well" is a pretty tongue-in-cheek joke (it's in meme form for a reason) but it derives from the actual fact that dreamlying is unreliable. [[truthing is unreliable]].
on a more personal level, it's one of those bitter truths that destroyed my analytic momentum and interest in like...i don't know, August or September 2021. from 1 of my drafts (before the roxytonic ad astra pivot):
the reason why i don’t talk or even update my old work as often as i should is because the act of studying non-professional criticism [dreamlying's content] is dead on arrival. i hit a brick wall the second time one of dreamlyings members told me they were a friend group [...] i hit a brick wall once i realized they were BSing everything. [what else do you say about that?]
