I just can't believe how much people's brains have been switched off. Or has it always been like this? Now I'm starting to forget...

It seems like there was a time, not even that long ago, when the average person was able to look at something and call it retarded if it was, in fact, retarded.

Now everyone is just chasing after that next dopamine high, so they don't critically process anything. All the raw processing capability of the prefrontal cortex is effectively shut off, and the result is people saying things like, "bitcoin doesn't have a deflation problem" or "I'm so glad I had the vaccine or it would have been so much worse!"

Bitcoiners think they’re all geniuses for some reason

There's a whole lot of Dunning-Kruger syndrome around here for sure. 22-year-old college kid reads one (1) book on bitcoin, written by some WEF shill, and thinks he's suddenly a genius on how economy works and how bitcoin is going to take down the NWO or whatever.

Exactly.

It works the same way as a cult, they genuinely believe they’re privy to special esoteric knowledge that sets them apart (that’s why they always say “few understand”).

Well said

Nooo you can't use the r-slur that's ableist

That's it. That's why everyone has switched their brain off. Even the words you might use to evaluate a claim to be foolish have been rooted out fo the minds of the normie for fear that they might be mobbed by a flock of screeching harpies who incessantly harass those who use them to death. In this way we are protected from even conceiving that an idea might be so bad, it might as well have come from a literally retarded person, because that might make us an -ist, -ism, or -phobe. We have been harangued to a degree that we can but submit to the boot. To embrace it, kiss it, and beg forgiveness for being beneath its tread,
