Thanks, James.

If we throw out our back — we can usually repair it, step by step. If we twist a knee or pull a groin muscle — it hurts but it can be rehabbed.

But when we cease thinking for ourselves and forget how to analyze data or false data and thus rely on others to give us world events in cliff notes form— then we are f**ked, because those muscles really don’t come back.

It’s really hard to start thinking again 20–30 years on after stopping or even slowing down. Because we forget how. We forget how to compare information, track down its source, compare it to an earlier version — all of which takes time and effort.

Easier to listen to Sean Hannity and TC regurgitate the pablum that FOX news generates than digging in and discovering the truth.

But that’s okay — it’s only our survival on the other side of this.

Not like it’s going to interfere with Netflix or HBO. 🤣😜
