Well said. Especially this part.

"...Writing, thinking and speaking are life long skills essential for knowing and understanding the world we live in...."

Fundamentally those in power, do not want the masses to be able to understand that they exploited or how. Its much like how the slaveowners in America made sure the slaves were illiterate - all the better to be more exploitable.

Such a good point, Robert.

It does seem like society is being infantilized.

The first place my mind went to when I saw your title was what I call the 'dumb men' movies -- Dumb and Dumber and its ilk. I can't be bothered with them, but a lot of people seem to lap them up. Not exactly something for people to aspire to.

I appreciate this critique on the obvious contradiction: "Artificial" "Intelligence".

Yes, our Canadian society is very infantilized. So much so, that Canada embraces Jewish Victimhood and kills Canada's sovereignty by assenting it into the Criminal Code.

This is how the QWERTY+ gender mob managed to have "Political Correctness" become something to kill for.
