Just as the title asks I’ve noticed a very sharp increase in people just straight up not comprehending what they’re reading.

They’ll read it and despite all the information being there, if it’s even slightly out of line from the most straightforward sentence structure, they act like it’s complete gibberish or indecipherable.

Has anyone else noticed this? Because honestly it’s making me lose my fucking mind.

    Most of social media has been like this for me since forever, same with RL groups I don’t choose, like school or university, frankly.

    Their intention is to value a separate person with their statement as little as possible (in extremes as little as themselves). Your comment isn’t supposed to be considered an individual thought, it’s supposed to go into predetermined classification, using some key words.

    People with little brain power would simply feel themselves bad without such classification. While with it they can deceive themselves that their “yeah sure we believe you lol” is equivalent to a proper expression of your thought materialized in words.

    Other than that, reading texts is a rare pastime for some.
