OP I know it's fun to rage at people like that, but you have to understand that society makes people the way they are. In this case, apathetic to learning and critical thinking.

No joke, I saw a pizza hut commercial the other day where a direct quote was: "its simple. people like pizza. they dont like math"

It's ingrained into our culture.

I happen to like both.

it's usually 6 countries better than america for test scores.

except for grade 8, Canada shut right down at grade 8, but back up at grade 9.

something must have happened the year the grade 8ers were born.

Canada's grade 12 test scores are 10th in the world.

America's are in the 20's somewhere.

Its probably capitalism driving evolution down the cul-de-sac of passive aggressive sociopaths.

You don't need to think critically if all you do is slander.

Productivity is controlled by adults, test scores are controlled by children. When that generation dies out, we're fucked.

Yep because 3/4s of our generation of kids and young adults being non religious is an awful, awful thing to happen to humanity!

please, more people are pursuing science than ever. when we're 50 years old, there will be no more "every political leader is rich, white, christian", ever, ever again.

Lolno

Kids are either radically religious, don't give a fuck, or atheist for the sake to rebel. Very few are actually educated atheists.

>> No.1858862

>>1858843
Still, most children are dipshit consumerists. Not a good thing.
