Good to know the public education system is working as designed.

55% of the U.S. population does not know that the Sun is a star

lol

73% couldn’t correctly say why we fought the Cold War

Well that's unsurprising. No wonder so many kids today think the hammer and sickle are cool.

3% can identify the first President of the United States

Oof. That's painful.

22% of Americans could name all five Simpson family members, compared with just 1 in 1,000 people who could name all five First Amendment freedoms

Makes sense. Easy to remove something if you were unaware it existed in the first place.

  • Tyrants come after free speech so people cannot organize and protest against the takeover. [65% there.]

  • Tyrants come after legitimate history, so that people are not cogizant is what is being done to them. [55% there.]

  • Tyrants eliminate knowledgeable teachers and their lessons in order that the relevant history can be changed. [2%]

  • Tyrants then come after the guns so that people can protect themselves from the impeding genocide which will remoe all opposition to an oppressive regime. [10% when you consider the rapidly growing number of "Red Flag" bullshit.]

  • After Tyrants have collected the guns, then they come to collect the undesirable people. Guess who that would be in today's America? [0% at the moment and there's not enough info to guess. White people? Nah. lol. Too many of us. They need something easy. Christians in America? Iffy. To big of risk they fight back. We won't know who they're after for another few decades.]

Yeah... we're fucked. Learn Chinese. We'll be speaking it in 30 years if this shit doesn't slow down.

From the wiki link the site has as the proof for the IQ claim:

Lynn and Vanhanen's research on national IQs has attracted widespread criticism of the book's scores, methodology, and conclusions.

How does it feel to be geezing out so hard?
