Unfortunately, the smart kids have to sit in the same classrooms as the dumb ones. We have to dumb everything down to the least intelligent students, because God forbid someone get's their feelings hurt when they constantly do worse than the rest of the kids in the classroom.

Dumbing everyone down is just part of what will ultimately make them 100% unable to take care of themselves as adults, and 100% make them rely on the government for all of their needs. They'll become slaves at that point, doing whatever menial task they are told, just so they can survive.

I couldn't agree more. Being a gifted child in the same classes as less intelligent pupils is a worthy depiction of HELL.

Will? Have you ever visited the resource centers of universities? People can’t write coherent paragraphs and need help with basic algebra.

I’m on another forum with a guy who teaches law students. His goal for these future lawyers is to get them to read and understand the Trolley Problem. The answers he gets from college graduates are things like lol 5>1 or “I don’t want to kill people”.
