Critical thinking is going to be both rare and valuable.

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (1 children)

it is neither.

what is rare and valuable is highly specialized skills in bullshitting and towing the lie with legal for plausibility deniability. along with a lack any notion of moral or social accountability outside of that which can be used for marketing or public relations purposes.

that is what is rare and valuable and want makes you c-suite material.

Value requires demand, and I'm seeing shockingly little demand for critical thought.
