dumbed down society 

parts of society that are not evolving to a more intelligent state, but rather becoming 'dumbed down' through passive absorption of memes and social media posts about nothing, fake news, misquotes, stolen or uncredited

where people don't think for themselves, become narcissistic, taking selfies and posting online, seeking cheap, superficial praise, and following and giving air to celebrities whose only claim to fame is the same narcissistic behaviour, where ethics, integrity and intellect are not a consideration

for a possible glimpse into the future for this 'type' and where it might take sections of humanity, refer to the 'people' in the 2008 movie, WALL-E

it's the opposite of human intellect evolution (see devolution)
to observe the dumbed down society we're living in, simply go online to any social media platform and look at the trending topics, paid advertisiting, filtered algorithms and other manipulations of the users

Dumb and Dumber

A particular pair of TV writers incapable of understanding the basic principles of character build-up and story telling, and that when a plot is really good, it does not need to be explained in post-credit commentary footage. Formerly named by their mom's as David Benioff and Daniel Brett Weiss, now known worldwide as Dumb & Dumber, aka "D&D".
Guy A.: Wait, why does Deadpool have his mouth sewn in this movie?

Guy B.: Oh that's Dumb and Dumber's brilliant take on being original, instead of giving you the "Merc with a Mouth", they wanted to subvert your expectations by giving you The Merc WITHOUT a Mouth... In their heads it's so deep they probably feel compelled to explain it in additional director commentary footage...
