Just responding to you with examples. The rudeness is yours.

Example:

I get an answer AND a list where the answer is based on. Personally, i don’t understand your issue at all.

So you don't use any search engine at all i understand. For instance, are you confident that google is fully transparent and gives you only checked facts? No intentional skewing towards favouring websites that pay for a high ranking?

Maybe the difference between me and you is that i always check the facts …for example where they come from. If the answer is given by a human or machine makes no difference for me. The machine though gives me the links where it derived the information from… not many humans do that.

So you either crawl back in fear fuelled by a lack of understanding or you embrace new tools when they come and learn how to work with them, what can be trusted and not, what improvements can be made. 🤷🏼

There are always options 🤷🏼

So you also never use google for instance or do you first compare the results of google, DuckDuckGo, ecosia,… before actually open a page? Interesting, i wonder how long it takes before you find something on the web.

Where did i say i want intransparent software that can by definition not think to try and check what facts are correct instead of doing it yourself?

If i have a question i want an answer not a bunch of links where i might find the answer to my question if i read all the pages and try to connect the dots. So yes, i want all of it.

What do I need to explain, and if I do will you be able to understand? Think I will pass on this one.

Are you this daft or just pulling my leg?

Ah, your lack of capability to understand a hyperbole explains a lot. I’m dad here saying, if you want to learn you have to practice, just don’t bother people with the results until they’re worthwhile.

I’m from Europe (Dutch). Unlike the US educational system, ours covers history and the various forms of governance in depth from an early age. The fact that you keep referring to a YouTube video as your main source is telling-not about the quality of the video, but about the state of civic and historical education in the US. In the Netherlands, we learn about political systems, history, and critical thinking as a standard part of our curriculum, so these topics aren’t new or exotic to us. Your reliance on a single video highlights a gap that, frankly, is seen as a weakness in the American system from a European perspective.

I guess removing hammers will do away with poorly built sheds as well. Good idea, let’s do it, removing all tooling in the world that might have a sub-optimal result.
