When I say "the uneducated states" I'm referring to general trends:

- lack of technological fluency

- lack of mathematical/scientific fluency

- lack of financial fluency

- lack of political fluency

- lack of critical thinking skills

- willful engagement with streaming psy-op platforms: Facebook, Instagram, Netflix, Tiktok

Netflix a wild one to include in that list, imo. What makes you think it's on the same level? If you're making some reference to "cultural importance" I would wager that ABC/CBS in the 90s had just as strong a pull as Netflix does today culturally.
Agreed. And one of those six maybe applies to me. So I don’t sweat it, unless someone is being very broad and loud with the finger pointing.
