I'm not at all sure either - it's just a feeling. Perhaps those who make up the world to suit their fixed oppions have become more adept at using the media available to them and thus appear more influential than they actually are. It's just that I simply can't understand how people can cling to the most absurd claims and even aggressively propagate them when it's actually easier than ever to check facts today. That's just mind-boggeling to me.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
