I live in the USA and its so bad i just cant interact with most people. They are basically entirely vibes based. They dont research anything if they hear a new claim they decide if its true based on if they feel like its true. You can literally show them evidence and most will be like "nah thats bs". I made a comment on 小红书 recently about how 54% of americans read below a 6th grade level and my replies are FULL of americans saying "uh i can read" .... can you really?

Truth is literally just your belief. What's your problem with people "feeling like it's true"?

Truth is material reality. People feeling like magic is real doesn't make it so, and if you cede ground to these solipsists then you can't get anywhere as a society.
