What does "Dumbing down" mean?

The undeniable truth that Americans are spending there energy disputing others opinions that differ from their own, instead of making a definable definition of themselves and their own actions in the real world. Hence making the culture that we live in now prone to mindless banter about subjects that are amazingly uninteresting. Also in leaving a gap between the intelligence that is tangible and widely understood and the intelligence that is in your own imagination, or a product of the misinformation that is so widely marketed to people.

By simply disputing my own definition and not posting your own newly original definition you are contributing to The Dumbing Down Of America.
I am aware as well that by writing this I am contributing too.

Bill: Hey, Jim I can't seem to understand why it's important to learn tolerance, understanding, and self control of my thoughts and actions?

Bill: HUH? Is that some sort of newfangled math?
Jim: No, you probably thought the Inquisition was a fun retreat for non believers.

Dumbing down - meaning

parts of society that are not evolving to a more intelligent state, but rather becoming 'dumbed down' through passive absorption of memes and social media posts about nothing, fake news, misquotes, stolen or uncredited

where people don't think for themselves, become narcissistic, taking selfies and posting online, seeking cheap, superficial praise, and following and giving air to celebrities whose only claim to fame is the same narcissistic behaviour, where ethics, integrity and intellect are not a consideration

for a possible glimpse into the future for this 'type' and where it might take sections of humanity, refer to the 'people' in the 2008 movie, WALL-E

it's the opposite of human intellect evolution (see devolution)

to observe the dumbed down society we're living in, simply go online to any social media platform and look at the trending topics, paid advertisiting, filtered algorithms and other manipulations of the users
