This is that "Are you smarter than a 5th grader?" type of shyt that's very annoying to see. Bunch of trivia questions one really does not need to know after they passed test or pop quiz it was needed for.

There are people designing computers and stealth bombers who don't know shyt about the Magna Carta or gerund phrases or how many electrons on in a nitrogen atom. Doesn't make them dumb though. Unless I'm going to trivia night, knowing this stuff is useless.

Plus they do video magic for these vids. They cherry pick what will fit their narrative. People answerimg correctly doesn't fit that.They're asking non-congruent questions in an environment that's filled with tourists or people who don't give a damn. If I'm fukked on the Vegas strip and you ask me this, I'm probably just gonna troll you. I'm the video camera and the mic skews shyt even more. Who's not going to try to cut up on camera?

1. How much he payin you?
2. If they asked old folk results wouldn’t differ.

Two thing to note about these videos is

1. They only show the dumb ones. The people who got the questions right are edited out
2. Sometimes even if someone got the question right, they edit it with an answer from a different question to make them look dumb.

Yeah I caught on to these a while ago. I’m sure they asked many people and they got the questions right. Also, not all of them were American either.

"We are fukked"

Yeah because all Millennials, Gen X, & Boomers are college scholars with encyclopedia knowledge right?



These videos ask large numbers of people these questions and they only show you the ones who say dumb shiit

I think/hope some of these are just gen z's idea of trolling.

Our culture seems to breed ignorance because of the fact that we breed specialists instead of generalists. Very easily understood. There are eight levels of intellect but we only raise one or two

If you were in charge of our culture, what would you do to change this?

Equity in education…no more quality of school based on tax distribution. Reintroduction of art music gym and philosophy…

This will never happen in a capitalist system however
