I have got to stop reading teacher anecdotes about literacy issues in students, this is messing me up

Obligatory Sold a Story podcast link.
I can't help but feel that a lot of this is deliberate, the end result of decades of dismantling the public education system to further divide kids into the upper class in private schools, religious fundamentalists in home schooling, and everyone else abandoned to keep the population uneducated and in worse economic precarity.
Somebody please tell me that the kids are alright 
Honestly. If i was in that position: were i have to read a sentence and press the button i would also pretend i cant do it. Just to mess with whover is making me do it.
As for watching anime dont you have to read a lot of subtitles for that? Or do they speak japanese and chinese?
