yeah, the information age hit us before we could come up with an education age

We made it way too easy for morons to get online. Folks who don't even know what a "packet" is can livestream their anus on TikTok, and capitalism is fine with that because it's "monetized".

You mean a data packet? What should people know that?

Less packet loss equals clearer anal shots.

It's important to have a basic understanding of how magic internet-box works.

We made it too easy for morons to find each other and unite.

I'm pretty sure future historians are gonna end up calling this the "Misinformation Age" instead.

i like it, because it's kind of ironic. the term used by the us govt is "disinformation". so calling it the "misinformation age" tracks perfectly.

Misinformation and disinformation are not the same (in German at least?).

Misinformation is when information is wrong on purpose, to misinform someone. Disinformation is when information is just wrong, like when someone said something by accident that wasn't correct.
