Does anyone else feel like 90% of the population is stupid?
To clarify here, I don't feel like I'm significantly smarter than most people, but I feel like people have a hard time doing any sort of thinking about stuff. Especially when it comes to verifying "facts."

I think we live in an age where advertisements are literally gaslighting, and also where large portions of the population are bombarded with advertisements on a daily basis. I'm not surprised if people's grip on reality gets a little wobbly, resisting all that propaganda is a lot of effort.
I think adblocking is the best thing I've done for my children.
Think about all those poor youtubers and the platform itself.
Lol obvious sarcasm, fuck 'm and the insane amount of ads that are nowadays considered normal.
That's a lot more complex than people are stupid. Occam's razor.
I would like to believe this is sarcasm, but it's impossible to distinguish fake stupidity from real stupidity; Poe's law.
