It stuns me what things some people will believe.

Like the 5G conspiracy and that bill gates is behind the corona virus etc

I guess I'm just blown away because if you look at this stuff with even an average IQ of 90 your going to realize what crap this is, yet people still intentionally spread it and even worse, some believe it.

@Wetrix you mentioned IQ but you have to remember, there are actual people with an IQ below 90. Its like George Carlin said, "think of how stupid the average person is and realize half of them are stupider than that". I don't think most people are stupid, but there are 1-2 billion actual dumb people in the world just by the odds. They live their daily lives, make decisions, and many of them believe nonsense. It cannot be helped really.

@mister_monster like I was saying earlier there should be a license to use the internet just like driving etc

You can do much more harm with it then any motor vehicle yet any moron and child has full access to it.

@Wetrix no way. You can't run someone over with the internet. A license to talk to other people? That's pretty authoritarian. What if *you* don't pass the test?
