Dumbing Cruder Effect

Claimant: "This is not a conspiracy theory. I did my own research to fact check everything!"
Doubter: "Your facts and evidence are all invisible because they are only in your imagination. All of your research is just other peoples opinions who agree with you. You are probably only repeating the opinions you heard from someone else."
Claimant (gets emotional and resorts to the Dumbing Cruder effect before leaving): "Well I believe it and I'm sticking with it. You're just too stupid to understand. And besides, you're just a big doodoo head!"

The Dumbing Down Of America
The undeniable truth that Americans are spending there energy disputing others opinions that differ from their own, instead of making a definable definition of themselves and their own actions in the real world. Hence making the culture that we live in now prone to mindless banter about subjects that are amazingly uninteresting. Also in leaving a gap between the intelligence that is tangible and widely understood and the intelligence that is in your own imagination, or a product of the misinformation that is so widely marketed to people.
By simply disputing my own definition and not posting your own newly original definition you are contributing to The Dumbing Down Of America.

grebo
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
