Unfortunately, the Internet has created a world of ill-informed idiots who are more dangerous than back in the day when their musings was limited to their breakfast tables and nobody said anything because, "We don't wanna make Paw-paw mad."
I've been locking horns with an idiot for years who posts musings feces all over the Net and runs from site to site misinforming the hoi polloi.
I've seen people on Facebook think they're one step short of attorneys because they watched every minute of the OJ case (or got sued).
Hell, we've had some so-called scientists who haven't even met Trump want to diagnose him as mentally ill. (Even our own Savannah Dare thought this was beyond contempt).
"I can Google it" has become a synonym for "I understand it."
Most don't.
