Is there something in the water or air that's spreading stupidity everywhere? Kids don't tend to learn anything in school; vying for who'll be the next tiktok fool. Society seems to be devolving; it's a worldwide puzzle that needs solving. Today, everyone is glued to their phones; no individualism; they're all clones. The internet has morphed into a cage, where people's minds seemingly disengage. Hate and bigotry have gained a platform; what once was outrageous is now the norm. We're losing our ability to think; it's simply easier to interlink. We're banning books, and we're ok with that; the net supplies pretty things to look at. Stupidity is something we can't fix, by throwing common sense into the mix. There is something wrong with people today; AI does their thinking; what can I say?
