I swear this always happens to intelligent people when they age

Me and my best friend are both gifted kids. Our families are all very smart people and so his mom and dad but for some reason, his mom is a really conservative conspiracy theorist (chemtrails, bill gates and the jews stuff) and his dad has weird spiritualist beliefs and rituals (cult inspired from buddism I think? I'm not sure) even though such stuff is forbidden under islam

Recently his mom randomly showed us a video where "they" are "vaccinating the fish". I was going to burst into laughter if I didn't hold myself so hard. My bestie is a progressive leftist, he believes in science, and he has a very materialist point of view. He says it's sometimes embarrassing for him when his family members do such thing in public

And the weirdest part is these are not caused by cognitive decline due to age. They still do understand everything pretty good and they can still process new information in a much more efficient manner than "average" people

My main idea about it is that skepticism can sometimes be a curse for boomers who did not have a source of knowledge to base their skeptic ideas on, and they are just not used to accuiring reliable knowledge from the web. Reliable knowledge often being in English and majority of boomers in my country not knowing English also contributes to that

Thankfully it's being trained on some real intellectual discourse like your rectum getting stretched out by rock hard shit instead of that garbage

That's what I've been saying all the time when my brother says monopoly sucks when you don't win. It's literally designed to make you suffer

But did all the objects on earth also lose their momentum? Otherwise they would be already made into paste before the waves

Just like drug addicts, these people are addicted to dopamine and they will do anything to get it even if it makes everyone else uncomfortable

I think TikTok format video players are straight up drugs. It's a real physical addiction which even has withdrawal symptoms

They are so appealing, I do avoid them but it's just sad to watch everyone else become a victim of those

Yeah that sucks. Mine has 128 GB internal and I added a 128 GB SD to store my music and (temporarily) store my movies which are normally stored in a HDD

I like the freedom of streaming anywhere without buffering while not worrying about mobile data quotas
