          Now now, you shouldn’t put yourself down like that. I’m sure you’re not dumb.

              They are. We’re all dead.

              This is the shittiest afterlife.

          Oh no! A potential monotonous job that lets me live a life of luxury 10,000x better than any of those animals if I wanted! Better equate it to a death trap… Not the reality of simply existing in the first place lol.

              Said the dumb Gabu man to every man, woman, and child in a society born since 12,000 years ago.

              What an absolutely, straight up, dumbest possible take anyone in existence could have. Are you possibly a literal baby talking to me from the afterlife after you refused to conform to society at all? After being born with such gifted intelligence that you refused to partake in existence?

              If so, props lol.

              Otherwise, have fun in your shack in the Outback or Canadian Wilderness with somehow so much time on your hands you’re still shit posting on Lemmy lol.

                Saying “fact” after a stupid sentence doesn’t make it true.

                  Correct, it being true makes it true.

                  If it wasn’t true you’d be falling all over yourself to point out the ‘successful’ communist nations.

                  But there aren’t any. China had to resort to capitalistic practices in order to save the nation. In 2022 Cuba was the number 161 economy in the world. Hardly a superpower and they still don’t have the standard of living we do.

                    Wow… just wow… you’re such a 'murican I don’t even know if I could count on basic education as being something you have.

        “Kids are dumb” is your conclusion? Eff off. Adults fall for the same tricks kids do. Else things would cost $7.00 instead of $6.99.

      In my highschool psych class we actually went to an elementary school and did this experiment with the kiddos. It was a while ago but if I recall correctly, 9/10 times they thought tall = bigger. I bet some people never grow out of that mindset or at least at first glance our less smart brain goes “tall is big!”

        I guarantee these big corporations have psych majors working in their marketing teams and it’s 100% intentional.

          Oh for sure, it’s definitely a whole wing of the organization. People are the ones who spend money, so if you want more money, study and exploit the people who spend it.
