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.”

No, this is a classic case of confirmation bias on social media. And I’ve seen too many people on Lemmy on the daily who have developed a smug attitude and think that everyone else is just another idiot and talk down to others from the start because of it. For a crowd that preaches compassion and understanding, sometimes I wonder why it’s only selectively applied by these folks.
Well obviously you are just another idiot because you disagree with me about whether everyone is dumber than me.
Fine! Be like that!
