as if we were dumb. I have heard (and I am not an expert) from many people the idea that you will get what you give, meaning that if you treat an adolescent as if they were a criminal, they will often become a criminal; it seems to me that if we treat children as dumber versions of adult human beings, they will grow up to be just that. (again, I'm not an expert)
A kind of virtuous circle and vicious circle. Dumb adults are creating dumb articles because they think that their children are dumb, which in turn transforms children into dumb adults ;)
