“It's easy to find what you’re looking for.
It’s hard to see what you’d rather not.”

This is such a, "uh yeah, duh," thing, although it's nice to see researchers putting a magnifying lens on it, even though it won't affect policy because the people making the rules just don't care. The diminishing of critical thinking (at least speaking in regards to the U.S.A.) has basically been an essential part of our consumerist, capitalist-centric society. The people at the top don't care to have an intelligent populace really, they mostly care about profits and keeping people at the bottom right where they are, struggling while making them money while barely making a living. This is America.

After today I feel the need to come up with a possible new mental health condition.

"Civic Compliance Disorder" (CCD).

This hypothetical diagnosis describes individuals who exhibit an excessive tendency to acquiesce to governmental influence or authority, often at the expense of their critical thinking or personal autonomy.
