    I know it may seem that way, but the reality is, you just get exposed to the morons more often now, the average level of moron has actually gone down! just look at some of the shit people used to believe not 40 years ago

      Maybe, at least 40 years ago those people would have only their local groups to feed from. Now it’s echo chambers with thousands and thousands of people all feeding off each other’s stupidity.

      there are also 7 fucking billion people now, so there are more morons than there used to be, it’s just that there are also EVEN WAY MORE non-morons too.
