Please enjoy this lorryload of memes to celebrate the endangered skill of critical thinking (or lament its absence accordingly). Perhaps with enough memes and creative kindling, we can help the masses rediscover this near-extinct practice—Gustave Le Bon’s admonition notwithstanding:
“The masses have never thirsted after truth. They turn aside from evidence that is not to their taste, preferring to deify error, if error seduce them. Whoever can supply them with illusions is easily their master; whoever attempts to destroy their illusions is always their victim.”
