Can Gen Z kids answer basic questions?

I have been watching man-on-the-street interviews of Gen Z teenagers up to 22 years old or so.

There hundreds of You Tube videos. They are both funny and sad at the same time.

It shows that our education system is seriously flawed, and these same people will be running
things in the near future. Obviously this is NOT all Gen Z kids, but I believe it is too big of a
percentage.

You have to watch it to believe it. It is either true, or they found hundreds of VERY talented
actors, but it's easy to tell how perplexed they are by these basic questions, this one for
example. "How many moons does the earth have"

Interview a thousand people and show a supercut of the dozen stupid ones. Simple.

@CountScrofula nah, you just tell a thousand people if their hand is bigger than their face they have the rickets then interview the ones who do it, classic trick since Victorian times when they would do man on the street interviews asking street urchins how many lorries in a shingbilly or whatever made up nonsense monetary units they had-it was the demise of western civilization then, too

@sylvivresavie Please watch a few of them, I think you will change your mind and say

@DogMan Someone's gotta find the generation that raised them and sort those old fuckers out!
