I think this is Clown World material. I know that videos like this are selectively edited, but even a few answers like these from what appear to be genuine students, maybe 17-19 years old, are really quite worrying — and maybe not a joke at all.

Wow...utterly shocking. Those questions would be insultingly easy for a ten year old (in my day). They probably know how many made-up genders there are, but can't tell you how many minutes are in an hour, weeks in a year, or dimes in a dollar, which even I, a non-American, knew at aged ten.

No, it's not.

I won't post links to his many other videos asking questions of students, but his video page is here if anyone wants to despair further about the US education system. (And I was wrong about their age. They're college students, not high school teens. Many of them will be as old as 22.)

Here are some of the questions he asks, which many young adults have no idea how to answer.

And these people vote.

• How many years are in a millennium?
• What direction does vertical go?
• What percent is 6.2 out of 10?
• Where are Dutch people from?
• Which body of water separates Africa from Europe?
• What is the chemical symbol for oxygen?
• Which mountain range is Mount Everest in?
• Who is our Commander-in-Chief?
• Which ocean is between Australia and Africa?
• How many ounces are in one pound?
• What shape has five sides?
• What is the past tense of "seek"?
• What is three-quarters as a decimal?
• What country is the Leaning Tower of Pisa in?
• What country is the Eiffel Tower in?
• What country is Alaska in?
• Where is Russia on this map?
• Where is China on this map?
  ...and, believe it or not:
• If you were born eight years ago, how old would you be today?

There are many more, but I got too depressed to continue.

I got all the questions correct, phew!
I can't believe this is representative of all of gen z. How many did he have to ask before he found the 'dumbest' answers? Or am I being too optimistic?

Another dummy. Apparently not a basic arithmetic question but a 'riddle' that 76% of people fail at. 76%!

Do you know the answer to the riddle?

At least one judge in Sweden has lost his/her mind and should be removed from office.

Migrant Avoids Deportation Because Rape of Swedish Girl Didn’t Last Long Enough



The headline seems ridiculous, but it is true.

After arriving in Sweden as an asylum seeker when he was a minor, Eritrean migrant Yazied Mohamed raped Meya Åberg in September last year, when she was just 16 years old, while she was on her way back home from work.

According to the Court of Appeal for Upper Norrland, this attack was not “extremely serious”—and so does not warrant deportation—because of its “duration.” This prompted commentator Ian Miles Cheong to note that “the suffering of a 16 year old is now measured in minutes”—a sign of “how far the system has fallen.”

On the ‘seriousness’ of the crime, it is surely worth highlighting that Åberg, now 17, afterwards barely went to school for a year, is still haunted by nightmares and—in her own words—is “really scared to go out and walk by myself.

"Balenciaga’s ‘Destroyed’ line plays on anti-luxury aesthetics — turning distress and imperfection into status symbols. It’s part of a trend called ‘deconstruction fashion,’ where the idea challenges what we define as beauty or value in clothing"

Whenever I hear "challenge what we define as..." I take it to mean "corrupt and destroy a long-standing moral convention". To convince the sleepwalking masses that good is bad, and bad good, what is ugly is actually attractive, and disgusting agreeable. What critics hail as "daring" or "progressive" usually ends up being just another nail in the coffin of common decency. A subtle sleight of hand (alchemy) to shift the Overton Window another notch. All part of the satanic agenda.

They wen't to school, they did the tests.


This dosn't look to be just a lack of education, it looks to be the result of nano tech, fluoride, bromides, plastics, all those 5.000 different toxins that humans are exposed, teflon, heavy metals, smart dust, EMF, and stuff like that.


It's seems like something is tappering and dumbing down the brain and blocking stuff out, it's not possible to be in collage and not know how to calculate 3 x 3 or know other countries, we see countries in any tv show, movie, these people watch shows, the question seems to be something is simply hijacking their brain, that's my theory.


I forgot all those frequency weapons being broadcast along with 5G,4G and satelites + plus intense smart phone hooking.

Don't forget the Atrazine White Cedar. While I don't condone unwarranted or senseless police violence, this guy willingly returned to the protest after being removed once already. Wait for it...

The Dark Secrets Of The SS Richard Montgomery Shipwreck sitting in the Thames Estuary

Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=xQp0n8zuoC4

Interesting 10 minute video about the ss Richard Montgomery, which has sat on the sea bed in the Thames Estuary since 1946 because the government wouldnt pay for the safety of the operatives to make the ship and cargo safe. So talk about a sitting duck Successive governments haven't addressed the problem and now the condition of the boat and the bombs has deteriorated considerably.

"This is the story of a huge unexploded bomb. A shipwreck, sat on the sea bed at the mouth of the Thames Estuary with thousands of tonnes of TNT on board.

The SS Richard Montgomery is an American Liberty Ship that sank in WW2, taking unbelievable amount of explosives and munitions down with her. If the unexploded ordinance never explodes, then this is nothing more than an interesting anecdote for the thousands of people living in Sheerness and the Isle of Sheppey.

But what if it does explode? A huge tsunami, a tidal wave, overpowering the Thames Barrier and heading straight for the UK's capital city, London. A disaster, just waiting to happen."

Some of the examples will, well, fry your brain. Bill: it's a very very short segment but she shows an example where folks use ChatGPT for advice on which mountains to hike, without properly researching the terrain beforehand and turning up at snowy mountain areas....in sneakers

Yes, this is happening more and more now.

I'll not post the whole article, but this was one example from a few weeks ago. Two young men from Saudi Arabia embarked on a 9 day trek in remote Krygyzstan, having never done anything like that before. They planned it all using AI. The experienced hiker who came to their aid said:

“They had these tents where they couldn’t stretch out, that you buy your kids when you’re going to go down to the beach. And that was a suggestion from AI."

Architects should be held accountable for the monstrosities they force upon us. Look at this latest urban stain:

This is a recently completed British train station. It is pathetic, value engineered to a level of comatose ugliness that dispirits & dulls the mind, dissuading passengers & degrading the trains that run through it. It is not civic or sociable architecture....

There is an intentional move afoot to make most Western architecture appear more repetitive, uniform, and bleak. The reason for this is an underlying ideological desire to align more closely with Marxism. They do not want capitalism to appear successful in any shape or form. They would deny this, but the architecture over the last 30+ years easily proves it to be true.

Yes, it all started in the 60's here in the UK, when beloved buildings were demolished, or land made available, to erect such monstrosities. A notable case in point is when they built the 'new' Royal Festival concert hall in London - a gigantic concrete brutalist bunker. There was a move, reported by the BBC (them again) years ago, to try to make 'Brutalism a desirable trope.
I don't do Royalty as such, but admired Charlie when he complained about a 'carbuncle on the face of a beloved friend' when describing a new build attached to a classic one, on the Thames (I orget which one)
