About this listen
The Great Stupidification: How We Outsourced Thinking and Let Fake Experts Run the World
Welcome to the Age of Manufactured Intelligence — where confidence beats competence, outrage beats understanding, and algorithms do most of the thinking (badly).
In The Great Stupidification, Kevin Whitworth takes you on a hilarious, infuriating, and eye-opening ride through a world that has traded critical thinking for clickbait, abandoned practical skills for pointless credentials, and elevated fake expertise to a global sport. From brain-melting corporate jargon to the rise of fake gurus, from the productivity theater of endless meetings to the social media circus where outrage is currency, this book exposes how we got so stupid—and why it’s getting worse.
But it’s not all doom and gloom (okay, it’s a little doom). The Great Stupidification also offers a battle plan for anyone still sane enough to want out: how to think critically, fight back against nonsense, reclaim your attention span, and survive in a society determined to drown you in noise.
If you still believe common sense, real skills, and actual intelligence matter, this book is your manifesto.
Get ready to laugh, rage, and—most importantly—start thinking again.
