I suspect the author is making a good point, but it is far from adequately supported. Merely an assertion of opinion, not a even really a fleshed-out essay.
Here’s the real shit, scariest thing I’ve ever read:
The Erosion of Deep Literacy, Adam Garfinkle, National Affairs, 2020
So read the article. It’s way better supported than this one. I’ll be interested in your reactions and happy to engage in a conversation. See you later?
Sorry, I didn't mean to claim that article that you sent makes false claims. It was just fun seeing a comment that claims about not well supported article, following the link, and seeing the same comment. Nothing more.
