@RadCentrism calls them low-information individuals, no?
The same ones who think a radio transmitter can cause tsunamis and earthquakes also tell you masks don't work and climate change and SARS are hoaxes. Understand whom you govern or write policy for. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-freq…

@RadCentrism Hashtag is #LowIQPandemic, look at a few examples.
These are the mechanics of disinformation and learned helplessness in the west, how we decerebrate ourselves even before SARS viral persistence does the job for us.

All part of a long march toward mediocrity in the guise of “compassion.”

And now add Covid:
Kevin Kruse loves the #LowIQPandemic because the dumber the populace gets, the more his work will be well received.
As I said:
Importantly, everyone should learn about the Tulsa massacre because everyone should learn about everything.
But the idea that curricula are “whitewashed” or that there’s a desire or concerted effort to do so at scale is 100% without evidence.

The democratization of information has obvious & great benefits. BUT it's enabled ALCR.
A quick example=Covid "knowledge."

2/ Covid has been such a clusterfuck that I hesitate to analyze how we ended up here in a quick 🧵.
But no matter the diagnosis, we can agree on the result: most ppl have preferred sources for Covid info/narratives.

3/ But it IS a problem if 99+% of ALL info sources are *fatally* wrong.
Here's a Dunning-Kruger (DK) metaphor.
Those in the top %tile of Covid knowledge—on the "Plateau of Sustainability" like @R_H_Ebright—can see reality but have no way of enlightening (at scale) those below.

Been saying this for a while now.
We are suffering through a concurrent #LowIQPandemic caused by abysmal educational standards—at all levels—particularly in the past 20 years.
The “decolonizing” of curricula in the 1960s and again in the 1990s has brought here:
