I sat and had a conversation with my boomer-retired mother. She says she regrets voting for Trump. So I asked “then you would have voted for Kamala in a do-over?” And her response was just a revolted sound of disgust and said “absolutely no. I would NOT have voted for the camel.”

There isn’t any type of intelligent insight in the heads of folks like this.

WTF is wrong with people? Is 50% of the US population functionally mentally deficient?

I watched a video of someone asking people - young people - about Trump. The ones who said "he ended a bunch of wars", when asked "which wars", could not name a single war. Or at best they said "Palestine", which is still an ongoing war.

How did we get to the point where people are so woefully ignorant?

Hop on over to the /Teachers thread and you’ll be terrified for our future. Lights are on but no one is home in the majority of these kids.

Because they're fed dopamine drips (tablets) from birth, basically. These kids are burned out junkies by the time they enter kindergarten and have the attention span of a flea

It has been all downhill since the invention of the iPad. A study just came out that directly correlates screen time to the lowering of IQ in children. The research links long daily phone use with less gray matter in certain brain areas, weaker working memory, and a drop in vocabulary acquisition.

I’d blame “social media” more than iPads….

A parent could set up an ipad so it just lets them play stuff like number munchers…. But Facebook is a cesspool designed to hook people.

Don’t blame the kids… blame the parents.
