    That lack of critical thinking skills is a direct and predictable result of everyone’s lack of effort to defend education. They’re victims of this too. We all are.

      True to a certain extent. The education system is trash, but knowledge is out there. There is a lack of curiosity coupled with an in overestimating one’s intelligence. Boomers are an excellent example of the narcissistic belief they’re always wished while gen Z leans more into the lack of curiosity side.

      “Education” is not the solution you people think it is. We need to fundamentally change our culture in order to move in a better direction.

      Greed, entitlement, consumerism, apathy; all of these need to stop being so socially acceptable and easily fewer than 2% of the people I come across ever mention it.
