To clarify here, I don’t feel like I’m significantly smarter than most people, but I feel like people have a hard time doing any sort of thinking about stuff. Especially when it comes to verifying “facts.”

All of “facts” is something someone told you and you believed based on their presentation. A lab coat and clipboard makes the fact no less wrong than a robe and candles. The stuff in textbooks is written by people with an interest in controlling your behavior. The best lies are sprinkled with truth.
I have literally zero means of believing basically anything anymore.
