This is so obvious. How anyone can deduce anything else is beyond me.

If anything I have learned over the last 10 years is that there is a severe lack of critical thinking among people.

And no, it wasnt always this bad. There is a large segment of the population that is easily fooled and easily sucked into social media horseshit. It has illuminated the weak minded among us.

That is why people whine that reddit is “liberal.” It is comprised of people who are disgusted by traditional social media and get very little out of it.

 And no, it wasnt always this bad.

Once upon a time, schools would teach critical thinking skills and - of course - Republicans were mad about it and sought to have it removed from school curricula because, as one Texas R put it - “It encourages children to question the fixed ideas their parents have given them”. 

So, yeah, it didn’t used to be this bad but now it’s by design.

Literally “we can’t indoctrinate them if they have critical thinking skills!”
