I honestly think a big part of why we’re more susceptible to right-wing idiocy is that we don’t teach basic philosophy in high school. I’m talking basic things like how an argument is structured, deductive vs inductive logic, logical fallacies, theory of knowledge, etc.
Maybe a nice TikTok series would help. Here’s 30 seconds on how to spot a fraudster: they are trying to sell you something very very complex in 30 seconds (or 280 characters).

Absolutely. Basic critical thinking should be fundamental.
Some scientific skepticism would be perfect.
Some schools do, but seemingly not most.
