I don't think this is wrong. I've learned so much talking shit. I even use talking shit as a mechanism to learn.

I talk shit -> someone corrects me -> I learned something new. The person feels great because they corrected someone.

It's like a free lesson and everyone wins.

Even people who didn't know shit, like me, get to read someone beating my ass with arguments, and they also learn.

But if nobody knows much of anything on the matter, how can anyone be sure they're being corrected and learning anything? 🤔

Sources.

By the way, I have the feeling someone is about to teach me something.

That is a nice, refreshing and honest view. If I'm being honest with myself, this happened to me very often as well.
