Just throw out LLM ideas you don't find reasonable and only use ideas that you yourself find reasonable. You don't instantly turn into a zombie when you use LLM. You can still use your head.
It doesn't work like that. Which is why con artists and propaganda function often by "offering advice".
You protect yourself against "propaganda" by educating yourself and not falling for emotions. Not reading LLM responses won't safe you from propaganda.
This is similar to saying that you protect against malware by using an antivirus and not being careful in what you download and run. I hope you can see the analogy.
There's no such thing as "not falling for emotions" for humans.
