How to Not Be a Moron

Are you tired of arguing with people who believe the moon landing was staged by Bigfoot, vaccines are made of 5G, or that facts are just government gossip? You might be living in the Misinformation Age. But fear not! How to Not Be a Moron is your survival guide for dodging digital dumbassery, decoding propaganda faster than a conspiracy theorist can say "shadow government," and sharpening your brain until it's keener than your uncle's tinfoil hat. Billy Taggert, your favorite snarky tour guide through the cognitive funhouse of internet idiocy, exposes the psychological pitfalls, sneaky algorithms, and glittering bullsh*t that make even smart people say stupid things online. It's part crash course in critical thinking, part roast of human gullibility-and all written so even your cousin Chad can follow along. If you've ever yelled at your screen, "HOW DO PEOPLE BELIEVE THIS NONSENSE?!", then congratulations-you're halfway to being not-a-moron. This book will take you the rest of the way.
