Some people have too much free time and too few brain cells.

All that mask wearing in their youth killed those cells.

And too many QR codes

And not enough access to credible sources

No, they've got plenty of access. They just don't want to be exposed to anything that challenges their indoctrination.

While that may be true. The filter bubble is also a very real thing.
Social media sites earn their money by your attention. And try to keep it as long as possible, with all the tricks in the books, and some they invented.
So when someone belives something. They search about it. And belive they have done research. When they find what the site belive keeps them engaged.

Want to know more? sorry, been playing to much helldivers 2. ;) https://www.ted.com/playlists/470/how_to_pop_our_filter_bubbles

The science is not conclusive tho. Perhaps i am in a bubble... messes with the head..

Some have medical degrees and will actively ignore anything that doesn’t fit with the Jeebus.

Religion and capitalism will be the legacy humans leave behind and it’s a shit one

Or rather too much access to too many non-credible sources.

Meaning, we need to remove shit like Twitter from the net already.
