Being careful to communicate clearly is NOT outrage culture.
Though streaming sources may be a different vehicle than television to obtain the signals, the content or methodology being promoted through either is essentially the same...whatever the prescribed agenda of political control may be...what we'd probably just call fake news for short. Until someone becomes aware of these "alternate" news sources as different from the big guys under full control....and that can happen at any age...though yes, i agree, there is still probably a smaller percentage of people over 60 relying on internet than television.
Yes, I do agree that there are some people who are more likely to accept authority blindly, but I am not so certain that it is as much age related as you think. I do agree that there are generational differences which I and others see more clearly in things like work ethic and perceptions of appropriate boundaries of appearance, behavior or language. It has been so good to see 20 and 30 somethings people speaking up in recognition of the assault on conservative values...I guess the rebellion against conservative values had become the "norm" so the next generation is now aware of and rebelling against "liberal" values...for lack of a better way to quickly describe.
Pearlrevolver, I think you had best re investigate the connections between IQ and education levels as there are MANY studies evaluating this which do establish a correlation, though not always an exact one. This is an area of my professional expertise. (and yes, I do agree there are MANY variables and I am also concerned about excessive vaccines and environmental factors that short circuit being able to develop to one's highest potential.)
I also mentioned EQ, just FYI, which affects how well one may be able to use one's IQ in various circumstances....such as putting together established "facts" with new information.
Sun_wolf, I am not sure what population of older people you are finding that can't /won't admit things promoted in the media aren't always true? Maybe stating it as "everything we've ever learned is a lie" goes further than many people are yet able to comprehend? Maybe take part of the story at a time?
This video on Monopoly was not a surprise to me in general, but the depth and scope of this research really did make it more clear how an agenda can be pushed so far and wide with so many people "in' on it....when the normalcy bias we hold just doesn't want to bend to accept this could really be true.
You are also bringing in some other factors, such as culture, that affect how people view authority. I know young people who are just as deeply entrenched that they can't see beyond the lies or hear anything that conflicts with what they believe...and really, the assault against recognizing legitimate authority has been underway for a long time already, which I suspect means that many younger people haven't ever lived in a time when it was normal to expect authority to be morally strong.
If you really wanted to get into more in depth discussion, studies of brain function do indicate that being able to receive/adjust to new information requires some kind of "shake up" event .... some people of any generation are going to be more resilient than others, but getting shaken out of entrenched beliefs to the point that new information can be considered seems to me to be a whole lot of the point of Q and rhetorical questions leading to discovery of that "shaking up" info...whatever generation is considered. That is kind of the psyop of Q's questions bringing out what is hard to swallow line by line, drip by drip....so it can be digested before more is revealed, I think.
Enough said from my end! And for what it's worth, applause for all here who are helping with the "shaking up" of entrenched beliefs!
Another link to IQ is breastfeeding. Babies who were breastfed have 3-5 higher IQ points than those who were formula fed. There was a push for formula feeding around the same time rates started declining. Interesting topic, but you probably know all about that.
There is wisdom in what you say about a shake up being required before new information can be accepted. Although I wonder if some minds are too fragile or set in their ways to ever be reached. Thanks for the discussion.
