Just as the title asks I’ve noticed a very sharp increase in people just straight up not comprehending what they’re reading.
They’ll read it and despite all the information being there, if it’s even slightly out of line from the most straightforward sentence structure, they act like it’s complete gibberish or indecipherable.
Has anyone else noticed this? Because honestly it’s making me lose my fucking mind.
It’s only going to get worse. 20% of the US is illiterate. 50% can’t read above a 6th grade level.
Read that again.
1 in 2 people can not read above a 6th grade level.
That is a fucking insane statistic.

Cannot read English? Well that makes sense. The US is filled with immigrants and non English speaking citizens
I’ll take the average immigrant’s reading level over the average conservative’s reading level.
