Anything to go viral these days.
The sad thing is, those people vote.
However, this was reference by a bona fide reporter, Andrea Widburg, which gives it some degree of credibility
There is no bottom to the ignorance of supposedly educated Americans
“Where is Venice Italy located?”
“I’m going to be a teacher so I should know this...Paris?”
Democrats would consider her eminently qualified.
Already fully qualified for the Diplomatic. Service !
It’s 100% credible, there are endless videos that show how uninformed kids are today, education has been nose diving since the mid to late 1980s when all the 1960s hippie Marxists had completely replaced teachers and professors from the WW2/ Korean war era.
I went to school in the 1960s and 70s and learned calculus from a WW2 bomber who started us off showing how math could help deduce when a bomb should be released from the plane traveling at a certain speed so “it properly hits the Japs”. lol lol Mr. Blair was his name and needless to say if a teacher talked like that today their career would be finished.
The sad thing is people fall for these fake videos.
“People Choose Free Candy Bar over Free 10 oz Silver Bar (Worth $150) in Experiment”
Mark Dice proves the ignorance of random people.

The public schools for the most part producing conga-lines of complete morons.
There are hundreds of videos circulating on the Internet which depict just how ignorant these high school graduates are. I find it totally alarming.
I don’t believe it’s entirely fake. A lot of today’s youth are really that dumb.
Not fake. Watch a few Mark Dice videos. It's quite real.
Don’t be so sure.
I was working with 4 electricians the other day and one of them received a call from Idaho. We were in NC.
He didn’t take it as it was suspected spam. He said to his buddy “Where is Idaho?”.
His buddy said “I think its in Utah”.
I didn’t see the need to correct them as it was just sad.
I believe it.
This isn’t the first video I’ve seen like that.
Hey, at least they know how to put a condom on a cucumber........sigh.
An African swallow or a European swallow?
As for “biggest city” could be a trick question. By geographic size or population?
Smallest country I was happily surprised I was right.

What’s funny is the number of people who believe this is real versus just trolling dumb questions. That’s the real disturbing part; not the video.

You have obviously never had a conversation with modern teenagers.
Most of them believe in magic, really believe. Most can’t tell you three state names. Only about one in fifty know how a car works. Less know how a light switch works.
