I am unsure of the source/author, however, the Bertrand Russell quote at the bottom is fitting.
"Are some of us destined to be dumb and is there anything we can do about it?
Most of us are healthier, wealthier and better educated than ever before.
We have greater access to knowledge and expertise than any previous generation.
Yet, people keep doing stupid things — from rejecting the science of climate change to embracing the idea that vaccinations are part of a giant global conspiracy to take control of our minds using micro-implants and 5G.
Why? Well, the late, great British philosopher and polymath, Bertrand Russell, thought he knew at least part of the answer.
"The fundamental cause of the trouble," he wrote, "is that in the modern world, the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt." B.R.
Not sure of the date but as he died in 1970, not much has changed for the better.
