Yeah, my very former classmates seem bewildered when I mention books we read for GCSE Literature. My grades weren’t good at all compared to said former classmates.

Its kind of shocking, do they just memorize stuff like robots for a few months then flush that memory?

I could never do that, if i learned something, I likely still at least remember learning it, snd if i didn’t then i still remember not understanding it.

I can’t hunker down and just memorize or somehow learn something without actually processing it and learning it proper, doesn’t matter how important, but then again I was later diagnosed with ADHD.

Equal employment opportunity at Epstein island i guess

If you look at the yougov voting intention poll by age it becomes very obvious that predominantly young, online-informed people are actually voting Green, Lib Dem, Labour etc.

If you look at the elderly boomers, age 50-65 and 65+ then its all Reform and the Conservatives.

If you further look at where people get their information based on age, on which there are many reports including by yougov, you’ll see that boomers get it much more from TV, tabloids, radio etc. At first i was confused at the radio bit but It makes sense - they own cars and listen to radio while in them.

The call is coming from inside the house. This is a transparent call to internet censorship to stop left-wing discourse about the Epstein alliance and their wars in the middle east that the establishment finds unpalatable and drive the young to believe in right-wing lies. Kremlin’s own rolling internet blackouts in Russia won’t be far behind this initiative for the UK and the think of the children types on here will fall for it hook line and sinker, probably support it as Lemmy goes away even.

Lol Nigel and his pals have had support since forever. The NF and the london race riots weren’t all that long ago. Boomers didn’t vanish since then.

I had those exact kinds of lessons in GCSE history in 2014. It didnt matter, when i spoke to my classmates years later about it as working adults reminiscing they looked at me bewildered that i remembered something like that, they didn’t seem to recall whatsoever anything specific they learned at school, even though i was the one who was awful at school and had way worse grades.

And its not just online, the traditional media is increasingly untrustworthy too, Ofcom has absolutely failed to tackle everything from GBNews to the increasingly obvious mask off reform support coming out of the BBC etc.

honestly half the people in this country look like they have fleas these days

Nothing says “trust me with your money and your children” like a permanent ‘smelled a fart’ grimace and an equally permanent entry into the sex offender registry.

He looks relatively young too, I would’ve guessed he’s more in the cryptobro workplace harassment wing of the party.

Social media is just another scapegoat like Russian bots.

The truth is much worse: most people are, and have always been awful, bloodthirsty ghoulish pieces of shit and they were so before social media, you just know it now.

2024 Edit: Told ya.
