"To think" is to follow a top down narrative given by someone else.
Everything must be reduced to topical subjects, bullet points, top 10 lists, listicles
"Thoughts?" is considered a question that can be asked.
Not how what when where why, just "thoughts".
Give me "thoughts".
Maybe its because my audience has gradually begin to skew younger, or because I have gotten older, but I continuously receive questions now in which the person asking, usually a young man, he does not KNOW how to ask a question.
"thoughts?" is popular. Or stating a subject, and then awkwardly asking to "talk about it".
So often, the questions sounds as if they were literally typing them into a search bar
Young Minds have not been taught HOW, only what to think
The American education model of forced reading and memorization for the sake of standardized testing, and the decline of teaching critical thinking...
along with the abandonment of Western Canon, and the Woke takeover (and soon to be coming Critical Race Theory takeover)
Its a growing failure.
America is mass producing idiots
Perhaps this sounds blackpilled, but it is reality
When standards decline, a society declines, and the very concept of standards and merit is being removed from education itself.
A society that does not read will never be free. It is a society of slaves.
