    Everyone now thinks they have exceptional intelligence. Thanks to social media they have all convinced themselves they are geniuses who think The Truth is a 5 second soundbite that they must endlessly repeat.

    That’s the root of the problem. 90% of the content of lemmy is really dumb people thinking they are original geniuses who just discovered communism/anarchism/socialism, as if it hasn’t existed for 200 years previously, and if only everyone else believed what they believed everything would be magical and perfect.
