As much as I despise Trump, I don’t disagree. I’m sure he’s saying that for stupid reasons, but most people are way more tech illiterate than they should be. I know bc I used to be tech support
If you were working tech support of course you’re going to interact with more “tech illiterate” people. That doesn’t mean the “most people” are tech illiterate, you were just dealing with a high volume of them, giving that impression.
Oh yes, please tell me more about my personal experience, random stranger.
Obviously, I’m going to come across more tech illiterate people on the phone, but to the extent that I did for the dumbest reasons would be enough for me to conclude that yes, most people have no clue what they’re talking about or what they’re doing. Literally way less knowledge than they should.
You came across many very dumb people, therefore most people are dumb. Seems logical. I work with thousands of meat workers, therefore most people must be meat workers.
Your experience is more or less selection bias.
Most people don’t know “what” anything is in that case. Cars? Most people don’t know what a clutch master cylinder is - they just know how to use the car. Most people don’t know what an app is, since they don’t understand the code language it was built in. Sure, they know how to use it but without knowing Java, it may as well be magic. Vaccines! No one knows what they are! There’s no simple explanation so everyone who’s ever used a vaccine has no idea what they are!
The average person does not have specialized knowledge about anything, even things ubiquitous to modern life.
Yeah, Trump is technically right here but at the end of the day, I don’t really care if a firefighter knows exactly how every app on their phone works, just as long as they know how to put out fires and maybe rescue cats from trees.
Not to give the orange turd credit here, but I think it’s fairly obvious that Trump isn’t saying that most people can understand the code, but rather he’s saying that most people don’t have an understanding of how much an app can aid the wrong kind of people.
Yeah, he’s an idiot, and I entirely disagree, but you just went on a whole entire tangent about a position that I neither expressed or hold. Chillax, bro.

Maybe? You don’t want cats to be rescued? Are you JD Vance?
