Idiots exist with or without knowledge. What the world needs to learn is to not put idiots into positions of power, and to remove the ones that found their way into power.
That's absolutely right; the only problem is that those chief-idiot are so rich that they control most of what the Internet means to the vast majority of people.
That's just how people are, unfortunately, as evidenced by the fact that platforms like Twitter or Reddit, for example, are still used by the masses.
Like I said: humanity needs to learn to not give such people power and to remove power from such people, too.
Why is kinda hard ito always do, idiots will follow idiots which will hate on different idiots or less idiots which makes hard for the less idiots to do anything
