MODERATORS
Imagine how stupid the average person is and now realize that half of them are dumber than that.
That's a global percentage. I'm pretty sure that the United States is exclusively populated by the lower 15%
I'm a simple man. I see a Carlin quote, I upvote.
And imagine a law allowing them to buy as many weapons as they want.
Now imagine each one of them is constantly plugged into a 24/7 propaganda machine designed to be entertaining and foster a sense of community and emotional validation while pushing the will of corporations and authoritarian leaders.
But that's not how averages work. We'd really be imagining the median person.
About one third of Americans are bringing the average stupidity way, way down.
