But YouTube isn't a social network, they killed the social characteristics of that website a long time ago. You cannot connect to hsers and I turn connect to thdir cinnectjkns, etc. You can follow content producers, but that internet mechanic had been around way before social networks were invented. You can comment on videos, but that type of interactivity also significantly predates social networks.
We're also in 4chan, which isn't a social network site either.

Except that is incorrect and paranoid: John Oliver's video is not about that whatsoever! Nor ia John arguing against honesxhooling at all!
The video is about lack of basic testing requirements for homeschooled childen in several US states. There's zero exams, NONE. Parents have no accountability, there is no quality assurance, as to what or how they are teaching their children. In some US states, a homeschooled person MIGHT, and CAN reach adulthood without even having been taught that 4+3=7 because there is no one with power to demand a basic standard level of education from their parents, and that is completely ABSURD. Their parents might literally be robbing their children of successful careers because of their silly, stubborn arrogance!
People should REALLY watch a video thoroughly before forming an opinion about it.

Dysgenics. Watch Edward Dutton.
Dumb people have more kids that reach adulthood than smart people. This trend has been so since about 1850.
Intelligence is in part a product of genetics, so it can be selected for like anything else.

This trend will continue until eugenics is accepted and implemented via free market genetic engineering, or civilization collapses.

Civilization collapsing is a dramatic way of saying a substantial reduction in civilizational complexity resulting in a reduction of the population by a couple orders of magnitude.
This process is cyclical, and is what destroyed rome and many other complex civilizations.

Free market genetic engineering eugenics is our only hope of escape. Probably won't have enough time; but the next civilization might.

It's all well and good saying you've got some evidence that contradicts the reasoning, but can you explain why the reasoning could not be taking place?

Fundamentally you are battling with either the suggestion that intelligence determined in part by genetics, or that selective breeding is all a coincidence.

As before, it's a matter of dumb people having more kids than smart people. How do you square this circle. I have the same question for those who hate the idea of ethnic groups having different levels of intelligence, and by extension the idea that genetics inform something about people's behavior.

I don't buy that they always were retarded, as if there hasn't been a slump. Whispering to the brain that it must deactivate, it must bark like an animal, it must produce as it consumes as it feeds on formula. The modern human is an embarrassment. Screeching feminine emotional xomen keeping the merry hell in check. Just watch some dysfunctional couple change a light bulb and nothing gets done because of the incessant offense arising somehow from the situation needing arguments and emotional trips. The whole thing, society, is some loud screeching feminine xomen hell hole, xomen police state. People are dumb because screechy loud mouths don't activate when you say and try nothing. So people are mass gawping, drooling, little bitches and that become the screeching dysfunction xomen when their alert state is flipping, like those stalkers from half life, complete and utter slaves to the whole fanfare of absolute growing dysfunction. Formula feed that was too much hassle to replace with actual food being the little bit of joy in their lives and the feed is bone dust scraped into pellets and it reads DANCE LIKE MONKEY AND HAVE SEX

>there is no one with power to demand a basic standard level of education from their parents,
up until about 120 years ago, virtually everyone was taught necessary skills and values from their parents "homeschooling." state education, designed with information operations and obedience in mind, is the aberration here. not homeschooling.
even if the state could demand a basic homeschooling standard, bet your bottom dollar, it would be more anti-white, DEI agitation propaganda. parents know whats better for their children than some school board, which should be obvious to anyone that's been paying attention.
even *when* the state *can* demand a basic standard, from a system it operates, which is its fundamental obligation, it won't. see link.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/adamandrzejewski/2021/03/30/baltimore-city-public-schools-promoted-student-with-013-gpa-while-spending-a-14-billion-budget

k-12 administration is always pissy about homeschooling (and charters) because fewer kids in classrooms = less funding. districts everywhere are promoting failing students to keep their stats high and the bonuses coming in. Baltimore is one of the more extreme examples, but it shows that even in abundantly-funded school districts, this standard (that should hypothetically apply to homeschooling) is completely ignored.

If we left it to the free market, the rich would enhance themselves through gene therapy and the strategic acquisition of poor women who happen to be fit and beautiful. The poor, having nobody to breed with but each other, would become less fit and less healthy due to this artificial genetic drift. Within 10 generations, you would start seeing major phenotypic differences between the rich and the poor, which would only worsen the selection pressure against poor people. Free market genetic engineering would accelerate us towards the kind of high-tech dystopian caste system you see in science fiction horror stories.
