I feel like our generation is accepting that their intelligence is declining. People don’t read!!! And the thing is it’s shows, it shows in our vocabulary, it shows in belief systems, it’s shows in how you argue. I feel it’s a conversation we need to start having. Share your thoughts with me tho 👍

Thanks Franklin for bringing this up for discussion. It's true that the advent of the digital age has shifted our attention from traditional reading materials to digital platforms. However, I wouldn't say that intelligence is necessarily declining. Instead, I believe it's evolving.

We are adapting to a world that's rapidly changing and overflowing with information, and our methods of absorbing information are changing too. People are still reading, but the medium has largely shifted from physical books to online articles, blog posts, and other digital content.

As for vocabulary and belief systems, I do agree that constant exposure to a wide array of information and perspectives can sometimes lead to confusion and a lack of depth in understanding. However, it also provides opportunities for us to broaden our horizons and challenge our preconceived notions.

The key, I believe, is to promote critical thinking and discernment in conjunction with this new way of consuming information. We need to encourage our generation to not just read, but to question, evaluate, and make informed judgments.
