The problem is not people being uneducated. The problem is that people are educated just enough to believe what they have been taught, and not educated enough to question anything from what they have been taught. 🧠
@ProfFeynman The problem is, quotes such as this are used by conspiracy theorists (Covid, climate deniers) to argue that THEY are the “independent thinkers”.
@ProfFeynman Which is why one must live life fully, which is basically reality testing constantly your conjectures and presumptions. And study statistics for God’s sake.
@ProfFeynman @RobSchneider I question everything. I have a right to know.
@ProfFeynman Rather nihilistic in a sense. Aren't we all educated up to that point? That said, given my own observations, the most educated, particularly professors, seem to be most resistant to self-reflection and most susceptible to groupthink, I'd have to say.
