People are developing dementia earlier and dying of it more, a study shows (Much more so in USA)

25. Fox News is the anti-crosswords, anti-musicianship activity; hence pro-dementia

So the DU member was spot on.

The Republican Party and Fox News are anti-science, anti-intelligence. They dumb down Americans by pandering to confirmation bias and using lots of propaganda tricks. It's all part of the Koch brothers tireless efforts to get Americans to think less and parrot stuff like denying anthropomorphic global warming.

Activities that help ward off dementia include learning new things and being open to new experiences such as new words (crossword puzzles, learning a language) and new patterns (playing music). All of that is eschewed by the couch potato class who consume Fox News like the bags of potato chips and fatty foods they love.

Your cheap attack calling a DU member a chem/pharm paid troll is really over-the-top. That's the kind of attack people make when they don't have anything substantive to add.
