Every vector is pointing towards the dumbing down of the population.

- High-school standards are reduced to middle-school level because that's what diversity can accomplish (if that).
- Social media distracts with irrelevant things 24x7
- Traditional media, movies and TV shows are also made for either the lowest common denominator or for propaganda. (or both)
- Have you noticed going into a bookstore, that it now has a huge Young Adult section? It's perhaps larger than the romance (porn for foids) section. A couple decades ago the Young Adult category didn't exist. There were children's books and adult. Now even "adults" read mostly young adult. 😩 And I won't even get into who gets published (women and fags). It's impossible to find a male oriented exploration/adventure novel.
- STEM majors used to teach foundations and general principles. Then graduates picked up the specific technologies at their jobs. That has shifted to teaching "skills" immediately applicable to the job market of the day at the expense of teaching the foundations.

The absolute worst part is that the average person is completely unaware of their pitiful ignorance and consider themselves automatically superior to people who lived in earlier times.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
