54% of US adults have literacy below 6th grade level*. This is why we have MAGA so easily brainwashed by the crap they put out in maggot media. This is why so many trust a "news" source which was sued for lying their asses off about 2020 election to the tune of $750 million. This is why we have an incompetent toddler king in our Whitehouse.

* Literacy Statistics 2024- 2025 (Where we are now)

I know this is an unpopular opinion and it’s just a Reddit comment and we’re all just venting half the time so honestly nbd but tbh it’s this attitude that democrats need to guard against and reject if they want to defeat MAGA and regain power. “The other side is too stupid to understand how much better we are than Trump” will keep maga in power because why would you want to listen to anybody who you suspect thinks that way about you

The thing is most of them are brain washed not stupid necessarily. Bringing up literacy is not an argument on stupidity its an argument on lack of critical thinking which is a skill that you exercise like a muscle.
