End democracy.

I'd like to offer a point for discussion. Why is that that so many people reflexively laugh when faced with a question to which they do not know the answer?

Diffusing tension or feelings of guilt? Although I think many non whites aren't ashamed or guilty at all that they have no base knowledge. Maybe they are just laughing that someone would ask them such a stupid question. From their perspective the only important inquiries are about trends and about themselves.

In general when I watch 'man on the street' styled videos I take them with a huge grain of salt. Sure I know the populace is REALLY dumb but it's easy to go around interviewing people and then at the end of the day just cut out the people that knew the answers.

We are fast approaching a point that dissident whites of good character are going to be in a similar situation that Jews found themselves in the past. In the near future there isn't going to be a large enough normie white populace to live within. The standards of that dwindling group are going to keep swinging to the worthless international pleb they all want us to be. Those new standards will be true deal breakers. We will not live as cattle. We are surrounded by so many dumbed down people that they pose a very real threat. This is going to leave us with only a narrow band of options.

Yeah, I did notice that they seemed much more literate on trivial modern nonsense like TV show characters and celebrity figures. This comes out in his videos, since all sorts of questions about characters in modern films or TV shows, most of which I myself couldn't answer, end up being successfully answered. One man actually gets four such questions in a row correct.

One thing that was on my mind is whether or not people are actually absorbing the same (or a higher) amount of information than in the past, but that what is being absorbed is simply the banal sports, entertainment, etc. that they're being bombarded with, leaving no room for anything more important. In which case, simply removing all of this crap would force them to refocus their attention to more meaningful things, just as Man in the past did not have these interests competing with these more meaningful things. Hence why, for instance, Man seemed far more literate in times of yore, whereas any sufficiently old book—which many men could read just fine back then—seems unintelligible to many today: their vocabulary is just that dumbed down. Alternatively, perhaps they simply are objectively learning less as well, and thus depriving them of this nonsense would not make as significant an impact.

I imagine that a hypothetical regenerative ethnostate would be deprived of most of these things. It is something for its future policymakers, psychologists, &c., to investigate.

Indeed. While we don't know how many correct responses he omits (he does share correct responses on occasion, and thus cannot be omitting all of them), there is a shred of possibility, of course, that the overwhelming number of people get them right. But if we're dealing with probability rather than possibility, I suspect that in all probability they probably are just ignorant on issues that matter, even if not quite to the extent as portrayed. After all, the content creator is clearly aiming to entertain here, even if the information he gathers does seem like material that a more serious researcher could work with insofar as these people really exist.

Spot on with the last paragraph, upon which I can't really add anything. We can see in these videos that quite a few Whites are just as clueless as the countless nonwhites that honestly look like the overwhelming majority of NYC's population, and there's not much hope that many of them will even reproduce, let alone within the race. Most, I think, are pretty much at the end of their bloodlines.

It should be noted that it is strange and unprecedented to expect everyone to be politically literate. It is an understandable expectation, given that we live in nominal "liberal democracies", where the "informed choice" and "agency" of voters is indispensable for political health, but historically I doubt you could find mass political literacy in any normal era. Ultimately, the Spanish-American war is irrelevant even to most historians, put aside the general public taken as a whole - it is the same with politics. People's lives rarely revolve around politics, it is just not something they have an interest in. The problem is that under the current system, each citizen faces the choice of either being a political expert or being exploited by one. Not to mention that the sheer volume of information necessary for a voter to make a fully informed choice in a modern state probably exceeds the mental capacity of any single given individual. The kind of data point based choice which liberal democracy affirms as its ideal and mandates for every single person is probably unattainable even for a highly dedicated, educated genius.

Noam Chomsky once said that he believes the north american populace isn't really that dumb at all. His evidence: the sheer volume of sports knowledge that many men carry around in their head all day.

The population has been dumbed down remarkably in the span of just 10 years. Social engineering has really done a number on the Zoomers. They are proving to be even worse than the Millennials... With that said, it should be kept in mind that these videos were filmed in NYC, one of the most dysgenic places in America. You can't judge an entire country based on the scum living in the big coastal citys. NYC is not America, anymore than Toronto is Canada.

    I'd like a time machine and go ask the Hitler Youth the same types of questions back in 1939. My bet is, perfect scores everywhere.

    They cherry pick the stupid answers(and people) for views. Fake as fuck.

    Even if it's cherrypicked, it's still problematic that you have this much cherries to pick lol
