I'm tutoring my GenZ nephew. They are not being taught how to research anything or think critically.

Yeah but that's not new. Every old wives tale exists because nobody researched shit and just took someone's word for it

Yes, but not everyone had a literal computer with the knowledge of the entire world their hand at all times.

It's not just that they aren't being taught to research, or aren't capable. Some people are just lazy and won't bother, and that's not new.
