Just as the title asks I’ve noticed a very sharp increase in people just straight up not comprehending what they’re reading.

They’ll read it and despite all the information being there, if it’s even slightly out of line from the most straightforward sentence structure, they act like it’s complete gibberish or indecipherable.

Has anyone else noticed this? Because honestly it’s making me lose my fucking mind.

    Yes it’s just one of the many signposts on the road to Idiocracy

      The biggest thing no one notices in Idiocracy is that they were still smart enough to find the smartest man alive to fix the problem.

      Can we start making fun of people who invoke Idiocracy the way we do people who invoke 1984?

        I don’t see why you would, as they are both highly relevant to the shit sandwich our world has become with dumbasses breeding more dumbasses everywhere, and authoritarian surveillance systems watching us everywhere.
