      so what exactly is your solution, magically making people not be gullible?

      you’re just perpetuating the idea that there’s nothing to be done, you’re saying these things so you don’t have to think about the uncomfortable reality that things are as they are for a reason, that we can and should be taking action to change the systems that promote misery.

        Did I claim to have a solution…?

        I do think that teaching empathy and logic so that the children may understand the world and society is a good idea that would drastically reduce the number of people that fall into the category of “gullible idiot.”

        How do we do that? What are the specifics? No clue. But teach people how to learn for fucks sake.

        Also you are projecting a lot of your own shit onto me I think. I made a pretty simple comment and you read a fucking fanfic.
