News is no exception. It has already been decentralized enough that everyone can write an article or blog about whatever they want from their homes. Clickbait is nothing but entertainment. Had it been available for people decades earlier, they would've eaten that shit up just like we do now. It's like a 'freak circus' a century ago, where you can go "OOOH" one minute and "AAAH" another with a couple of chuckles thrown in between. It's just something we crave like fatty foods or salt.

This probably affects writing aswell but I've gone on long enough and tbh fam smh I haven't really thought about or even been involved with writing.

If you really wanted to make a case about the world getting dumber you'd need to involve the fact that it has been noticed that the Flynn effect has been slowing down. But that's mainly in countries with lots of immigration so that might be it.

Oh and by the way don't you bash on repetitiveness. Don't even dare tell me this isn't repetitive as shit and still not good as fuck:
