What do you mean supposed to do? Doom scroll through school? Cheat through college? This is the dumbest, most useless generation of recent grads I've ever seen. It's not just me, its a studied, measurable drop in math skills, reading skills and attention. They're fucking worthless.

    Maybe instead of blaming them... you look at the years and years of dismantling funding for schools and the push for technology in the classroom...

    Oh yeah, that's fucked. Don't get me wrong, I am absolutely not saying it's their fault that they're worthless, just that they are worthless.

    The mix of experimenting with tech in the classroom, social media, then add in missing two developmental years from covid, and we have ourselves a lost generation.

    We already learned our lessons. California has banned phones in schools starting this school year. Many countries are banning kids under 18 or 16 from social media all together.

    We learned a ton from how badly gen z turned out. But they did turn out very badly.
