See, this is how people end up being in favour of eugenics.
It’s not that stupid people exist, it’s that they keep being stupid, and bafflingly self-destructive, even after their stupidity is demonstrably demonstrated to them.
I’m in favour of education. There was a time when people lacking education strived to close the gap and become a better version of themselves. I’m not sure how we lost that, but I want it back. I’m not only talking about school. People went to classes after work, read about new stuff and invested into themselves.
“This is all useless bullshit!!” “How will learning history and science pay my bills?! Or pay my rent?!”
All they care about is doing the bare minimum to skate by. They don’t really want to participate in society or life. They need to be put out to pasture – given a tiny eco house on a quarter acre of land somewhere, sent food boxes once or twice a week, left to fend for themselves and, most importantly, not allowed a say in politics anymore.
Education HAS to be a requirement to vote and education guidelines and cirricula have to be hard encoded in the next Constitution or equivalent we make. Have AIs anonymously test everybody to prevent discrimination. Have people hand-write exams or dictate into a microphone for oral exams to prevent cheating
I don’t care if people don’t like it, it’s the truth. “It can be abused” is no longer an excuse in a system that has been broken specifically because of the lack of such a policy. Democracy only works when the population is educated, but the people don’t want to be educated, so you have to either force them or have an academic ruling class run everything.

Social media broke us. Instead of seeking to learn and become better, idiots seek likes and retweets. And they get it.
Thank god I’m not one of them.
Please leave a like and subscribe. And take a look at my new merch “not one of them” and become one of us!
Haha. This was very funny.
