Sarah Wynn-Williams had a front-row seat to some of Facebook’s most consequential (and controversial) moments. These are some of the most shocking claims from her memoir, Careless People.

    This almost seems difficult to believe, but considering the state of the world, I wouldn’t be surprised if it is true.

    30% of Americans were okay with bombing Agrabah, from Disney’s Aladin.

    80% of Americans thought food labels should say if the food contains “DNA”…that 33 percent of respondents thought that non-GM tomatoes “did not contain genes” and 32 percent thought that “vegetables did not have DNA.” So there’s that.

    A majority of Americans are dumb and all of those people are even dumber than you can imagine.

      I was refering to Kaplan specifically. Considering his background it seems a bit strange, but unfortunately very much believable. :(

      seems like they polled all boomers and rural folk.

      I’m relieved that people are so into labeling even if they don’t understand it. You can’t become informed without information.

      Not surprised at the stupidity. People are dumb, selfish, and entitled. Americans are a great example, but it’s not only Americans. We just did the speed running version.
