Not trying to be critical, but I have noticed something on this forum.
A lot of people here simply do not know how to write, punctuate, or use proper words in the context of a sentence. Demonstrable proof that they are just not that smart.
Coupled with the fact that they seem to enjoy insulting and calling one names. Which is also demonstrable of immaturity.
I come from a generation that calls like it is. No sugar coating. If it quacks like a duck, waddles like a duck, then it is a duck. Simple logic and reasoning, which is in short supply on this forum.
That said, just how in the hell did we get here?
Intentional, structured dumbing down. Proof is there and I will share it with the reader.
Charlotte Iserbyt was Reagans' Senior Education Advisor. She knows a lot about the subject.
She wrote the book, "Deliberate Dumbing Down of America", and "Soviets In The Classroom".

John Taylor Gatto was a 30 year educator from the state of New York. He wrote the book, "Dumbing Us Down".
If this is not enough information, then there is Yuri Bezmenov. A KGB defector in the 70's.
He gave a chilling interview in 1984, of all years. Ironic.
His full interview can be found in the Youtube video, linked below.

Why did I post all of this?
Because stupider is not a word in the English language, but dumber is.
Get butt hurt by this post? Not my problem and none of my business.
Enjoy!
I'm not a troll, thank you very much. You're offended because I didn't favor your post. Have a good night
Then why did you comment? Because trolls look for everything to criticize. My 17 year old taught me that.
You're favor. Rich. Have no need of your favoritism.
You simply read the comments and disregarded the linked information.
Good night.
I don't look for things to criticize. I commented because I felt like it. I'm not favor and I'm definitely not rich and I'm really not looking to favor or be favored. I was merely commenting on an open discussion. I read your comments and I commented. That is all. Yes, I am having a good night. Free speech is great
I have seen and heard about the communistic takeover in the schools and society, but that is not always why people don't like to be all proper English. Just so you know. I'm very aware.
