Every year is notorious for different reasons. 2019 was the year of Trump’s public impeachments, full of highs and lows. And 2020… do we even really need to go there? I mean, this notorious sum up we published last year should do the job instead.
And it turned out that the year 2021 was no less messed up. With the pandemic becoming the new normal and changing the ways we live beyond recognition, making the real estate prices soar and leaving millennials in an eternal state of rental despair, the time of uncertainty proved to be the perfect breeding ground for false assumptions, fake news, and totally crazy myths. And boy, we had a ton of them.
So should we just give this year a medal for basically the dumbest 365 days in modern history? Well, below are some posts to prove we should. If not, we may wait for the next year to see if that one’s gonna be up for the challenge.

as someone who has been homeless outside we would rather sleep UNDER the benches to prevent being soaked by the rain | here in belgium they do their upmost best to prevent the homeless from sleeping in.. places put poles in any flat surface, block porchessend policemen to arrest the homeless ( includeing searching them which means getting us naking yes even underage teenage me! cops do this! so really sleeping inside of a station where there are CAMERAS and you know people will tell on you and get the police ((some people-quisling even offer to take you in call the cops when you're not looking keep an eye on you and get you arrested so we don't stay in the streets being completely harmless but stay in a cell after having been stripped!!)

Gun Ownership...
I can’t even get a full-sized bottle of shampoo through security, but this yahoo thinks he’s getting a gun onto a plane?
Well, if he tries, his son will most likely fly alone because daddy got shot at the airport.

I need two AR-15’s in case I’ve hijacked a plane to take my sick kid to France for treatment & some idiot tries to re-hijack the plane to take his sick kid to Italy for treatment.
The Gov't can kill you with remote controlled drones. They ain't worried about some ding-dong with an AR-15.
Next chapter of the gun extremists saga will probably involve them demanding their own tanks, fighter jets and aircraft carriers to prepare for the day they have to fight back against their government in the name of patriotism.
Load More Replies...The Yanks would do anything to keep their guns, but offer universal healthcare and they will threaten you with those guns. They need help.
Not when half of the population is fighting as much as we can to GET that healthcare and regulate the hell out of those guns. Plus, about 34% of us actually own a gun, so most of us "Yanks" could not threaten you with anything. But don't let that get in the way of your prejudicial generalizations. Us "Yanks" are not a monolith, ya know....
Load More Replies...Dude, you don't even realize that saying you need your gun in case you ever need to do something violent and lawless... is an argument FOR gun control!
Seriously. This is precisely why this nut job should have his guns taken away. This is not a rational person.
Load More Replies...I just want to let you know that here in Italy we'll surely cure your son, but we'll also arrest you, since we have laws about owning guns.
this is also a great thing in advocating for universal health care as it puts someone in the position that they have to commit a terrorist attack break multiple other laws risk his life his sick sons life all to be able to get him affordable health care ya America number 1 more like number 2 and i don't mean second place not all of them though
Wow mate, what a hero. Everyone is impressed at what a big man you are.

He heard it had something to do with covid and didn't note the part about it being the original epicentre when covid hit.
Load More Replies...If we're to that point, what makes you think there will be flights to Italy at all? Seriously what storyline makes that work somehow?
F**k this guy for planning to hijack a plane to get into a country where he can take other people's tax money for his son's healthcare when he doesn't pay taxes there himself.
But.. but... I thought the US had the BESTEST medical care if the world??
no they spent it on aircraft carriers just in case a taliban with a stick threatens them. oops.

Idiots won't wear a mask or get a vax. Can you keep COVID away with a gun Its gonna do you a lot of good when your on a ventilator!
What an idiot. The constitution was made when guns could shoot a single bullet and then had to be reloaded. Constitution was also designed to be amended if necessary. I literally cannot imagine sending my kids to school with the potential of them getting shot. Hiding behind your idiotic argument about the Constitution simply tells everyone here you are a moron
Load More Replies...It’s safe to say that this year proved to be a perfect breeding ground for all levels of stupidity. From anti-vaxxers coming up with the most insane conspiracy theories to an unprecedented spike in online disinformation, people were not shy to come across as, let’s say, not exactly the brightest ones.
At the same time, human intelligence varies astonishingly and it’s pretty hard to label one person dumb and another one smart. After all, even the smartest bunch can be prone to stupid decisions and behaviors. And who are we to judge them?
Am I Wrong? No, It's The Hundreds Of Years Of Science That Are Wrong!
If I had received that assignment I wouldn’t give an F minus because that would be too high. I would give a Z minus (which I know it’s made up but I think we should make a whole other grading system for people like this) I would only give a Z minus if it was well written but I doubt that would be possible for a person with an IQ score in the negatives.
Such A Dumbass
I don't know who's dumber, the girl or the boyfriend. What are they going to live on if he doesn't get an education? And don't go feminist on me people, she clearly isn't the type to get an education for herself if the most important thing to her is that "my boyfriend turned down 5 fully paid scholarships just to stay here with me, because all I care about is that a man validate me and make me feel pretty and wanted even if it costs turning down 5 paid scholarships."
An 8 Year Old Shouldn’t Have To Do This
Just because someone posts a thing you find dumb or don’t agree with, it doesn’t necessarily mean they’re that—this is plain fact. Nevertheless, some people seem to be really confident in making bold and improvident statements. Meanwhile, others tend to stop, reflect and even criticize themselves before acting boldly and jumping to conclusions.
Well it turns out that confidence is a powerful thing. In most cases, it’s totally productive and we’d all benefit a fair share if we worked on having more of it. Also, too much self-criticism is destructive and traps us in an eternal limbo. So to find out when having too much bold confidence does no good, we spoke with Susan Petang, a certified life coach and the author of “The Quiet Zone Coaching.”

Susan explained that “overconfidence can cause us to make big mistakes, or take unnecessary risks,” so no, the saying ‘you can never be confident enough’ is not exactly right. “Being overconfident can also contribute to us feeling entitled, and not considering the feelings of others,” she said.
“It's important to have a healthy sense of self-esteem and self-confidence, that's rooted in reality, and consider the needs and feelings of others, too,” Susan said. She suggested asking yourself “Where do you fit into the network of people that surround you? How are you impacting their world?”
Moreover, in order to make sure that your actions are fair and not over-confident, Susan suggests considering a couple of things beforehand.
“A) Is what I plan on doing going to hurt someone?
B) Is what I plan on doing going to hurt me?
C) Am I willing to accept the potential consequences of this action?
D) Is this action something that fits into my value system? Would the person I aspire to do this?”

Understanding the consequences of your actions also plays a huge part in coming across as a smart person. This is not to say that consequences are unimportant, since they make us learn lessons, but in many instances, people are not open to any transformation coming from them, because it entails acknowledging the fact you were wrong.
For example, spreading fake news, like that there are microchips inserted with the covid jab, may seem innocent at first sight. But it contributes to profound consequences that include: distrust in the media; undermining the democratic process; fueling the platforms for harmful conspiracy theories and hate speech; and the spread of false or discredited science.

In its profound sense, fake news creates a false reality that not just one or two people buy into, but thousands, and it creates a reality that those creating the fake news can manipulate to whatever they want it to be. Those lies, if continued to be perpetrated, can turn deadly or threaten societal stability.
Sadly, there's no proper system in place for transparency and accountability when it comes to what’s shared and who shares things on the internet. It’s still a grey area, where huge amounts of info are regurgitated on a daily basis. Should those people be held accountable? And this is an open-ended question, at least for now.

All the members of the band are of Armenian descent, and each has a terminal point in their family history where they can no longer trace their lineage due to the Armenian genocide that Turkey initiated during World War 1. They have been trying to raise awareness of this event since the foundation of their band, which was named System of a Down after a poem written by backup vocalist/guitarist Daron Malakian which describes the erasure of an entire generation of Armenians.

Except for the gross and untrue hair color "jokes" someone made earlier, these were all just hilariously sad.
I'm guessing you've heard it too much and it rubs you the wrong way. I will be more aware from today of not making this error. I don't think I've told a 'blonde joke' in years but I used to I'm sure, and I didn't consider over the years it actually does have harmful undertones. I don't know where it all originated though? I've heard that it was due to long term bleaching being bad for your brain cells back in the day, but that sounds like it could be bogus too 🤷♀️ it's like red head hatred: honestly most of the world has hair some shade of brown, and maybe we are all a bit jealous of the natural beauty and uniqueness of look that red and blonde haired ppl have in spades and shades. From a jelly brunette with red tones that you can hardly see, so yeah, brunette. Boring lol
