This is not a SFW instance. NSFW communities will be tagged, and efforts will be made to keep SFW communities clean, but proceed at your own comfort level.
Idk about that, but certainly there is a very strong correlation between people like this and those who feel like they need to consult chatgpt or grok to filter out basic facts. Their willingness to give up their own thoughts and opinions bodes poorly for the future, especially of democracy.
It’s valid critique, but I don’t like the precedence of being stupid also taking away your humanity. Education can fail us in deliberate ways from the top sometimes, I wouldn’t say folks with a bad education aren’t human. Even for folks who lean out of otherwise good education, or who don’t hone their critical thinking skills, I judge them as humans who suck. Being in the middle of a fascist regime and with mainstream news dehumanizing minorities, I think language around humanity is important.
There’s a difference between this and old fashioned stupid. Stupid people still have thoughts, and those thoughts are their own. Even if they’re stupid.
Stupid people still have opinions. They didn’t get them from me, and if they rid they’ve been distorted beyond recognition.
Its like they’re not even people anymore.
