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 helps to use only happy nice words. A happy sentence is an objective sentence, free from judgements or pronouns.

    “You watch that stupid thing too much.”

    Starts with a pronoun, contains “stupid”, ends with a judgement. It’ll make people furious and it’s not the content for them but the trigger words they scan for.

    “Maybe we could go outside instead of watching TV?”

    Same reasoning behind why you said it, different responses sometimes.
