The 2012 study showed that watching Fox News (and MSNBC lol) often made people dumber than if they hadn’t watched any news at all.

But it wasn’t until I looked into what inspired that study — and the results of similar studies being conducted again and again — that I discovered just how bad the problem is.

See if they will join you in other brain-killing activities like drinking, Scrabble, and huffing gas.

Some hopium? My boomer cousin (recently retired surgeon) has stopped his stream of BIDENFLATION facebook posts and just posted a “the british museum should return all that shit they stole” thing. I guess it’s possible he posted it in a “omg can you believe these snowflakes” sense but he didn’t add any of his own commentary.

TBH, I’m getting a WorstPersonYouKnow.jpg feeling from that specific one.

Maybe I’m missing something, but a lot of modern art is trash. It’s not all Banksies out there.

Definitely more of an ok boomer vibe from that post than a deplorable. Of course the overlap between the two is massive. Definitely know some hippie type old people who’d also hate that but would be fairly progressive politically

That’s nothing to do with degrees. And the banana is great. We are still talking about it.

Seems like an obnoxious level of irony for a surgeon to shit on artists for “getting a degree.” I assumed it was going to be shitting on AI art which would be a lot more relevant, guess that boomer meme is 10-15 years out.

You should respond with “sorry that you’re offended by a banana”. What’s the point of being a surgeon if you’re just gonna go through life like this?


Shoulda gone with “you’re a fucking moron if you’re not sure that’s fake” My friends are as dumb as your average breitbart article commentator. Just endless she’s a man jokes in every news article and twitter thread.

How social media is radicalizing your parents in two photos. First screen shot is years old photos from when the account was created, second is from a few months ago.

Yea social media has been the absolute perfect medium for boomers (and younger idiots too) to get completely engrossed in radicalized right wing propaganda. It would be fascinating if it weren’t so depressing.
