NO. NEVER.
If you want to introduce newbies to crypto,
YOU SHOULD FIRST MAKE THEM UNDERSTAND WHY DECENTRALISATION IS IMPORTANT. (Not necessarily Decentralised finance, but decentralisation)
Now there will be many resources on the internet, but teachyourselfcrypto.com is a good place for everyone to learn about why decentralisation is important.
If you introduce newbies to crypto through sh#tcoins like Doge and Shiba, the sh#tcoins will only keep going down in value/have pump and dump schemes. And then when they find that they have been dumped hard, they will lose the belief in cryptos in general and will support the media FUD to ban cryptos, which is currently happening full scale here and the government ban is the last thing we want.
My belief is everyone should keep stacking BTC and ETH when available in discount because they are going to grow in the long term. Other coins with a use case can be gambled around.
Lastly, everyone should invest in cryptos after doing some due diligence on their own, which includes not trusting any crypto influencer.
On that note, I had just put up this picture as a WhatsApp status on Saturday morning. This is one of those things people should keep in mind and not refer those below individuals:
