America isn't stupid, because they have the best military assets in the world. If you want to show the population has gotten more stupid, you need to show peer-reviewed papers, not anecdotes.

This is such bullshit. Do I need peer-reviewed papers to show that water is wet? It is completely obvious to any reasonable person that Americans have become stupid.

The irony is that the stupider a group of people becomes, the harder and harder it becomes for them to recognize that fact.

They instead "trust the experts" because they no longer trust in their ability to think for themselves.

Since not all water is wet, indeed you do.

We have a stupid President who gave Iran $30 billion to build missiles to attack our allay Israel and also cut funding to Israel.

wtf does a nation’s military prowess have to do with the intelligence of its average citizen?

The title says "America".

She managed to trick you in knowing about her. That seems pretty smart to me. In case you are referring to the cultural value, then I could point out that you can't crank out Mozart all day long (because that was already done). Literally, every combination of chords is recorded somewhere already by some lawyer.

Well it's the whole world, and the answer is the internet.
