It doesn't matter how long you make them read Lenin and break rocks in the gulag, the second you let them out they'll see an AI generated meme from a CIA holdout posting from a bunker somewhere and immediately revert to being a burgerbrained fash.

I think we need to just dump them on an island somewhere and put them under continuous naval blockade and internet blackout till they revert to a Hunter gather society.

Yeah. I misread the title as

I genuinely think American CHUDs are too stupid for self-reflection

It's a behavior you learn from seeing peers and parents do, and we're (at least) several generations into a negative feedback loop.
