  • How many moons does the earth have might be the best clip we've ever gotten. Another wild one from our friend Justin Awad, Gen Z truly knows nothing. These are VERY basic questions and it seems like they don't even know how to go about answering them. Can Gen-z think??

Don't give up all hope on humanity. I will add an asterisk that I live in a pretty conservative area so there isn't a lot of the political murking that feels up classrooms in more liberal areas.

      But imagine how it would be abused though...imagine the question "How many genders are there?" and then preventing people from voting when they provide the correct answer of 2.

Because a population that is educated, that is not ignorant, that questions, that lives with hope and is not fearful is a threat to those in Government, those that have controlling power and their agendas.

The English test was mainly identify the grammatically correct sentences . they had 1) I done that last week 2) I did that last week. So no verb, adverg, noun, pronoun, predicate of a sentence type questions. The mathematics questions were all just arithmetic and order of operations questions. I swear that only people who had just graduated Highschool failed those tests and had to take remedial English and math.

      Not to mention that a lot of the answers to those questions come up on TV and social media in news programs, television shows, movies, etc. I’m Canadian, and I knew the answers.

      Its not their fault though. What is your point? That dumb people exist? Dude it's a problem with the US public education. It's not the kids fault they're uneducated, it's the assholes in office purposefully cutting education budgets and nobody wants to be a teacher anymore for pennies.

    This is just sad.
    They should make students pass a test like that (trivially easy questions) before graduation. If they can't get >80% of them right, they have to redo the year.
    No one benefits from cretins graduating. And as long as they can, they don't feel the need to change the system.

    • @inviso87
      @inviso87 Před rokem +12

      Most kids don't meet testing requirements for graduation already. So they instead either have to score high enough on the SAT, pass the ASVAB (military version of testing) or other type of assessment, or what a lot of kids do...go to a "remedial" class their senior year where they are taught the exact testing questions, can use those notes, and then take a 2-3 question assessment on those questions that the teacher reviews before submitting to the school who then submits to the state. A lot of people don't really know how dumbed down it truly is already. What's happening in education is truly sinful. And before people blame teachers, this isn't coming from them. Teachers hate the system and think it's a sham.

      I agree, but instead of to graduate, they should have to pass a simple test like this, say 20 questions with at least 16 correct answers, or one like those that immigrate legally here to become citizens take, in order to vote.

      I'd go further. They would need to get 100%. These questions are simplistic. Come on, when was the War if 1812? You should at least say 1812, even though it was from 1812 to 1815.
