Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

No matter the cause or effect, stupidity is the root of the problem. You can't exploit a weakness that doesn't exist.
Unfortunately, I was reading somewhere recently (I think it might have been a t-shirt?) that, "you can't fix stupid."
You can. I fixed myself to some extend
Are you sure?
They did qualify said fixing as 'some'.
Human nature is the root problem. It encompasses stupidity, greed, and violence, and many other traits - all of which are available to every human.
i love it when people say "i'm too smart for propaganda to work on me" because all i have to do is find out their rough location to find what propaganda they've been falling for.
It's a good thing that's not what I said then isn't it
