We consume information like Koalas consume eucalyptus.

We stuff our faces with toxic filler with little to no nutritional value, until we get sick and pass out. Just to wake up and do it all over again.

The internet’s greatest strength is that anyone can publish knowledge to it. The internet’s greatest weakness is that anyone can publish knowledge to it.

I grew fat with cheeseburgers.

I've said it before, I'll say it again:

The era we call "The Dark Ages" was a period where people simply didn't write as much down.

Right now, we can't get to the shit worth reading. It's buried and every day going farther and farther down under layers of slop.

Eh, I disagree on both parts.

Lots of information out there, but it's the equivalent of a Forrest full of virtually identical berries, 90% of which are poisonous.

And people are broke as fuck these days, you need wisdom to survive like that, and you earn it the hard way.

It's just that when they have to devote so much energy to meeting their base needs, they can't be assed to think about more abstract things.

Which is why the wealthy are never happy unless everyone else has nothing. When we're comfortable enough to think ahead, we start asking why there's any oligarchs to begin with. And their propaganda pitting us against each other isn't as effective.

People are wise, you're just judging fish by how well they can climb trees
