Und wieso ist unser schönes Gehirn so eine verdammt faule Sau geworden? Wenn man das am rechten Rand immer lauter werdende politische Geschehen verfolgt, sich in sozialen Netzwerken bewegt oder die belanglos bumsbanalen Reality-Formate im TV anschaut, könnte einen die blanke Verzweiflung packen. Es scheint, als hätte die kollektive Blödigkeit endgültig gewonnen und der spießigen Vernunft lachend die Beine weggetreten.
