lulz.....is this another “unexpected” type ping?

Expected if you ask me being the libtards and progressives that have taken over hordes of school districts across the country have students believing in social justice and equality principles. Come on, I mean geezus, why give any effort when grades are being bumped, students do not fail classes anymore, there are no winners — both sides get trophies for success, blah, blah, blah.......it is going to get worse for this ‘give me now’ generation, bet.

The internet has replaced libraries.

I think there was a study a while back which showed that
children who were raised in the “country” had more skills
at adaptation, invention, resourcefulness, and more drive
to succeed. Whereas children raised in a city where most
of the lives were programmed had less of the those skills.

Now that everyone lives in a “virtual city” with their
“engagedness” it is not surprising to see the stultifying of
their intellectual pursuits.

Television, the Internet, constant pop culture, sex, government indoctrination centers for schools, parents not taking a role or responsibility in their education, of course students are learning less, and half of what they are learning needs to be unlearned before real education can take place.

I remember when I was a graduate student reading in the main lbrary I over heard this comment said by one undergraduate to another:

“Would you believe I’m a senior and I’ve never been in here before?”
