When presented with a series of charts, the [Hive Mind](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/a-debate-on-where-america-was-before-trump-were-we-really-in-decline/928648/164) reared its ugly head.

Pretty funny argument on the spineless one’s behalf though. Showed a series of data points indicating this country’s declines started under Reagan, he started ranting that students of the _future_ will be suffused with groupthink, ignoring what he was _seeing_ for what he was _told to think._

Lol. So close. So, so close. Appreciated the demonstration of RightThink tho, Octo.
