Why go to college and develop critical thinking when you can just accept the doctrine of state capitalism and make money for the big guys leeching off the state and weakening our institutions?

Looking at undergrad college students, I don’t think critical thinking is being developed. Entitlement and easily taking offense yes, but not being able to critically consider and evaluate competing ideas.

maybe they're taking offense because the critical thinking skills they receive from higher education enables them to understand the nuances of the world better than you do?

or maybe your "competing ideas" aren't as compelling as you think?

From what I hear, not much critical thinking is learned in college in 2024.
