Are we getting dumber as a society? In this 20 minute or so video, Nate makes some fun and offensive comparisons of our world today vs. 2006 when the movie Idiocracy first appeared on the big screen.
I laughed a little, was offended a little, but mostly just nodded along in agreement looking back at scenes from the movie to where we are today.
Those were my reactions so you have been warned.
Go F#%k yourself!
That’s Secretary Not Sure
We Had a good run...

Who is posting this crap?
“Can we Go Family Style???”
Author states less intelligent are not shown to be out-breeding and mentions a study.
Well several other studies say the opposite. Professor Dutton has a PHD in a very related field and he has many videos with sources. Matter of fact here is a playlist:

Yet as a Canadian he is a a typical smug CANUCK, ignoring his countries short falls while focusing on ours. Besides the fact Canada has many of the same problems, such as I recall reading somewhere Canadians are happily replacing themselves. Something like 1/3 of people in Canada are foreign born.
Also we see left wing Canada running roughshod over Canadian rights, anyone remember the reporter being arrested because he actually asked a politician a question?

‘GESTAPO’: Canadian Reporter Arrested for Questioning Deputy Prime Minister”.
So many threads these last years have posted what seem to be basic MARKETING of YouTube channels. So many about Ukraine, of course. This is of course different. A look to the channel:
This YouTube channel was begun 7 May 2014. It shows him with very few subscribers of late.Eleven years later it's still SHTF. And it's still MARKETING, alongside clicks, solicitations of donations for a company profiting from sales, and the like.Juts remember, when the SHTF messages cry aloud that the "SHTF," every SHTF profiteer will want you to send them money. Caveat emptor. Canadian Prepper estimated AdSense income
He fundraises for himself, via Patreon which shows him with about $ 85 / month in support.
"creating Survival and Prepping Videos"
His website, "canadianpreparedness.com," was registered with GoDaddy 2016-01-08, as is privacy protected by a company in Tempe, Arizona. On his site he sells all sorts of survivalist foods and apparel, including such as "Wysi Biodegradable Toilet Paper Tablets" for "from" $ 28.99 USD. Note that the prices are in US currency.
The "About" tells in part "Canadian Preparedness is a family run Canadian company based out of Saskatoon Saskatchewan that seeks to bring top quality emergency preparedness products to campers, preppers, hikers, survivalists, first responders and wilderness enthusiasts."
A look to the Videos/Oldest in the YouTube channel shows he has been telling of the SHTF things and such titles as "SHTF: Fear and Control in the Apocalypse" (1,582 views since Jun 25, 2014) and "What SHTF/ DOOMSDAY Looks Like... (Depressing)" ( 2,313 views since Aug 7, 2014).
I have to agree with it...to many forces at play now to stop it, slow it down yes, stop it no..
NewsAcross all ages and demographics, test results show Americans are getting dumber

In the last decade, achievement scores have been falling — and gaps have been widening. Why is a huge unanswered question.
This story originally appeared at The 74, a nonprofit news site covering education.
There’s no way to sugarcoat it: Americans have been getting dumber.
Across a wide range of national and international tests, grade levels and subject areas, American achievement scores peaked about a decade ago and have been falling ever since.
Will the new NAEP scores — our nation’s report card — coming out on January 29 show a halt to those trends? We shall see. But even if those scores indicate a slight rebound off the COVID-era lows, policymakers should seek to understand what caused the previous decade’s decline.
There’s a lot of blame to go around, from cellphones and social media to federal accountability policies. But before getting into theories and potential solutions, let’s start with the data.
Ya, and yellowstone is gonna BLOW!
I take peeks at these panic puke vids once in a while. And i also have informed them that false publishing is a crime.
This one is near the top of the chart.
Fu’kin panic puke bastards.
Stop talking to me
Excellent research
Thanks. Being skeptical of much these days, it's entertaining pulling back each curtain like Toto to see the "wizard" -- "Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain."
Darn every Lefty and some pretend conservatives can be found behind curtains.... Usually they want your money.
As usual great work.
Know who else was on that panic kick a while ago? Glen Beck. Advertising it.
Dont know if he still pushes that or not. I rarely listen or watch him.
They try these panic tricks to sell. But, good news is that there have been survivalists popping up showing people that common store goods are just as good and reliable.
Only demons think like that. Mark 5: Legion (~3,000) of demons possessed a man. Jesus is going to cure him and the devils begged him to spare them by casting them into a herd of pigs. Apropos.
Jesus did so and the panicked pigs ran over a cliff and died.
Demons = Pigs = Liberals. Synonyms.
I think it all starts with the loss of paragraph breaks, and goes downhill from there.
Years -- decades -- ago, there was a student "spoof" magazine at USC in Los Angeles. Long gone now, I think. It had one front cover cartoon which I wish I'd kept.
Imagine a doomsday sayer, bearded and robed, carrying a huge sign declaring the end of the world. "The End is Near."
In small letters at the bottom of the sign was a footnote: "Please return all books to the Doheny Library."
There are so many skits and jokes about this, that one could chuckle all day long.
--- "....common store goods are just as good and reliable." Indeed. And cheaper. Caveat emptor.
Best wishes.
