I’ll tell you what, my brain does not work as well as it did before I got COVID, and it affects everything in my life, including my job.
Obviously COVID has lead to significant cognitive decline in many people. But I think that the effects of stress often get overlooked as well. The work conditions in the US are much worse than in most of Europe, which already has bad work conditions. Anecdotally, in places with US and European employees who work together there is a difference where the US employees work way more hours but are usually way less creative/sharp/productive than their European counterparts.
between AI use and dozens of covid infections, westerners are going to be some of the dumbest groups of humans the earth has ever seen very soon.
And Americans were already fairly stupid, incurious, and unpleasant to begin with.
We gave the world burgers, give us credit for that at least (don’t fact check me, I need this)
Americans have now forgotten the burger due to mass-dementia.

So it’s been what, six years? And for pretty much the entire time this has been known to happen from covid.
Now they are doing these headlines, because history must always start yesterday and all things happen only in isolation.
And of course we will not mention covid. Or stress. We will just look at this “mental decline” and decide that it is what it is, everything is shit, there’s nothing we can do. So carry on dying for capitalism, but do some self care that ensures you can still be exploited by the capitalist.
I am going to fucking scream
Do it… Let it out.
This is pretty fucked up
dealing with memory decline at work
Surely it’s limited to work? /s
You wonder if anything will ever be done, or will the baseline just keep going lower and lower while the masses ostracize and/or kill anyone trying to do anything about it.
