With no real incentive to educate out side of a desire to just be educated I could see a strong dystopian future where those generations have less and less skills to critically judge information …

the twist is: it doesn't matter if large parts of the population aren't able to make meaningful decisions, if you don't allow them to make decisions in the first place ... that's the plan here, dismantle democracy and give all control to the hands of a few.
