>"It's not even an inability to critically think.

>>526161666Thing is it's not that they can't read. They read a lot in fact - on the internet. It very likely stems from there.

teachers are only allowed to fail around 15% of students in total nowadays. ive sniffed around different counties and the interwebz, roughly 15% or 20% in really bad ravenholm-type schools. everyone else MUST and WILL be passed out of high school. every standard is now on a curved grading system.

If so, it is because standardized texts are “racist”. Seriously, look up what happened to CAHSEE or why SAT/ACT is no longer being required: literally because niggers are too dumb.

>>526161666THIS ISNT ANYTHING FUCKING NEW.Im 42. When I was in school, three quarters of the kids in ALL the schools I went to could barely read. "No child left behind" became a thing, and they dropped the required grade to pass from a C+ to a D- right at the end of highschool. It went down progressively. In elementary it became a C-, then a D in middle school, then a D- in HS. In my elementary school, they introduced "creative spelling" and near the end of it "creative math", both meant if the kid "tried" to do it, tried REALLY HARD, it was acceptable. This was all in the late 80s and throughout the 90s. No one had computers, no one had internet, no one had cell phones, let alone smart phones. This was all in michigan, but I know for a fact it was in florida as well because my family went there once a year and I had friends there. This shit has been going on for a LONG fucking time.

>>526164893Same. Inevitably when some idiot on /lit/ is shit talking a book and I start asking him questions he lets it slip he "listened" to the book, not read it, and usually while he was doing something else at the time. I have wasted so much time trying to talk to dimwits who didn't even read the book properly.
>>526164893I remember Between Two Worlds by Heinlein pretty well. Listened to it on the elliptical 17 years ago.

>>526161666hahhaahha fuck zoomies are cooked
>>526165359My cousins' kids are sad to watch. The older girl is in 7th grade and she can't even read extremely basic sentences without having to sound out every other word. She didn't know how to read "scientist" or "information" for example. The younger girl somehow reads better than her big sister despite being an ADHD little gremlin in 5th grade. She pronounces a lot of words wrong, but she's confident about it and just plows ahead without any hesitation.
>>526162239>if they haven't got basic reading skills? How did they do their A-levels or graduate highschool?How do girls? I graduated high school all the way back in 2005, I distinctly remember how stupid and lazy and disinterested the girls were. Obviously there were exceptions, some of the smartest and highest-achieving students were girls, but MOST of the girls in my class would just sit in class looking bored, playing on their phones if possible, staring at the wall with vacant looks on their face if the teacher didn't allow phones in class, they never answered questions, never did homework, they just sat there and had their time wasted. They didn't care about grades, they didn't care about the material, they absolutely refused to learn. It was beneath them. They didn't participate. And they all graduated anyway, so I don't know if they were fucking the teachers or what.
>>526165410Audiobooks are like being a child and being read to. They are like hypnosis files too.Different parts of the brain are stimulated when reading words and you have to make the sounds in your mind's eye.
>>526164512>>526165144thanks anons. those are simple, yet kind words that help a father to know he is doing the right thing. the irony of homeschooling is that despite the fact that you dont want your kids exposed to the public schools you unconsciously seek some sort of way to gauge where they are developmentally. often times it is hard to know how well or how poor they are doing, but the added double irony of homeschooling is that your kids WILL be lightyears ahead of what is happening in public schools, making any comparisons moot. i remember in our early parenting days, strangers being surprised that my young kids knew their colors or spoke in complete sentences, but from my wife and i's perspective we were like "uh why? isnt that normal?" thats what eventually set us on the homeschool path.

>>526162483>They read a lot in fact - on the internet.Haha no. They voice chat and use tiktok, they use phone apps. The internet is perfectly accessible to the illiterate these days.
>>526161666I mean yah colleges are admitting basketball Americans, jeets and bulb heads into colleges due to DEI and other perverted incentives. So I'd expect the student body today to have no understanding of recorded history and basic reading skills.

>>526166027as if office workers dont slack constantly
>>526165088Be honest. Public schools exist to prop up the teacher's union. You may have a passion for teaching young minds but you know deep down technology is reaching those brains, penetrating it and influencing it far greater than any human teachers are currently. It is now a fact of life. The old public service addage if I just impact one kid... To the tune of trillions of bucks? Go do tutoring then if that's the goal. Because tech is reaching minds across the globe and human teachers can't keep up with that competition. Nice to have a union though because there's protesters on demand, the likes of Randy as your leader, and a nice handy voting and political bloc at your fingertips. That's the priority but few will admit it. Teaching avatars have been a thing a very long while now. And a student can interact with the greatest minds of all time. Pretty sure it's not well known because teacher's union lobbies for it not to be known. But one day, the human teacher after 5th grade will go the way of the telephone operator. It already would be the case if not for that pesky union making puppets of members of Congress. Another group that should become obsolete as soon as possible. Your dedication is noble. Your union is a corrupt bag of shit serving other corrupt bags of filth.
>>526164435That is basically how I was raised. My parents gave me books and taught me basic linguistic tricks like lists of Latin and Greek prefixes and suffixes and their root meanings. By grade 3 I could read pretty much anything put in front of me, even stuff way, way above my knowledge level and still be able to understand the words. I could "take apart" multisyllabic Latinate or Greek vocabulary I'd never seen before because I knew what the Latin/Greek roots meant individually. This skills is so valuable that it is criminal that it is not standard curriculum in public school.
>>526165088Heiled
Since the future professionals will be using AI because they can't read, write or even speak articulately, I don't see why we shouldn't cut the middle man and let AI replace them.
A delusional society is trying to force its delusions of equality to come true. Pushing everyone to the utmost of their capabilities reveals inequalities. Equality requires reducing everyone to the lowest level.

>>52616635190%+ literacy isn't a delusion or a pipe dream, it's entirely achievable with a solid public education system. The delusion is trying to push college enrollment for every student, or even secondary education for every student. That's just not feasible. For some students, the benchmark should be basic literacy and mathematics. The basics to survive in society and do simple labor. Trying to get them to do more than this is just wasting the time of the teacher and putting the student in a situation they don't want to be in. Nobody wins.

This shit was being talked about in 2018, and I should know, because I was saying it.Most zoomers, shockingly to most, are mid 20s and in a perpetual state of fucking retardation. There is NO hope that they can put it together outside of probably 3% of them, and not because they couldn't improve themselves or do it, but mainly because they are so arrogant that they WILL not.Zoomers are the reiteration of the Lost Generation, the only difference being because they didn't have to work for anything, they will all mostly amount to nothing at best, and societal drains on average. Stop expecting them to get it; at some point, the fish don't bite. Millennials and older, and Gen Alpha or whatever is coming after these stupid, sad, lazy faggots need to accept the majority of zoomers cannot and should not be doing anything more than packing grocery bags, digging holes, and making big rocks into small rocks.

>>526166863There's always been a shockingly high amount of adult illiteracy in the US due to niggers, but even among rural whites it's fairly low. Our education systems are piecemeal, and highly stupid desu. You're at the mercy of local school admins and state school boards. My parents deliberately moved to an area with a highly rated school system to give me the best possible public education since they couldn't afford private schooling. They really, really wanted to send me to a Catholic school, not because they're Catholic (my dad is actually a renounced Catholic who went to Catholic school himself) but because the local Catholic school has bar none the best academic performance in the entire county, and is routinely in the top 5 for the state. Really pricey, though, and if you're not a Catholic getting financial assistance to attend is difficult.

>>526167155Probably the comic strip. It's good reading material for a young kid. A lot of the humor will go over their head, but kids tend to be curious about stuff like that rather than put off by it. I have found that children will take stuff at face value that will confuse adults or make them hesitant to jump into things. Probably explains why comic books are the way they are, kids don't give a shit if the random issue they picked up is #17 of the current run and part of a larger story involving two other runs by the same author. They just read it and their incredibly plastic brain just fills in the gaps as they go with whatever they need to enjoy it. I truly envy their ability to just enjoy anything like that.
I just want to make clear there is no such thing as "critical thinking". There is just thinking. Teachers church up critical thinking to make you believe that you are only a "Critical Thinker" if you come to their conclusion. There is a reason they are techers and I make a lot of money and its not because they are "critical thinkers". or have some special access to thought process that I dont. Quit using AI and learn to read morons.
>>526162558>teachers are only allowed to fail around 15% of students in total nowadays. ive sniffed around different counties and the interwebz, roughly 15% or 20% in really bad ravenholm-type schools. everyone else MUST and WILL be passed out of high school. every standard is now on a curved grading system.Here is some good reading

>>526167326It's not only that, most colleges will literally take anyone as long as they pay up.
>>526166402I like your style. I won't live to see it but those cathedral schools, especially here in Texas, may one day be a thing of the past. If there is a need for public school bureaucracy disguised as teaching institutions it should be from 3yo to 14 max age graduation, and 16 the age of majority and tech heavy throughout. Sports should be completely removed from public schools and corpos and pro sports teams and parents footing the bill. But if a kid is forced by law to attend school PE should be twice a day and mandatory unless physically disabled, and then structured to fit that disability. But not taxpayers footing mini pro sports teams for no reason. Foot that bill outside the govt run schools. The public school sports complexes rival even that of semi pro teams and it is insane. There should be learn from home for anyone past 5th grade and if parents want more socializing for Timmy he goes to the community center where he can interact and still plug into his online courses. It is time for the US to stop throttling youthful exuberance until they are almost middle age to begin life. It serves a body of govt that is geriatrics, as they are moulding the future while they don't have one. And school is the greatest potential throttler on the planet right now. Tech over teachers or we will never progress as a society in the technological evolution of mankind. It serves the precious union members because there will be far fewer teachers doing even less than they are now and they will surely enjoy that since it's their main priority anyway. Be part of bureaucracy or progress but it is destructive to think there can be both.

>Gen Z (born 1997-2012) is the most racially diverse generation in U.S. history, withroughly half identifying as white (around 50%) and significant portions as Hispanic/Latino (around 24-25%), Black (around 14-15%), and Asian/Pacific Islander (around 6%), alongside smaller percentages identifying as multiracial or American Indian/Alaska Native

>>526161666Vade Retro Satana>>526162239Nobody reads. That’s how this happens. Unis have no choice but to pick from retards. I’m from a very working class background and I was the only one out of my peers who could write properly because my mum forced me to read books outside of school.If you want your children to do well academically make sure they read all manner of books (fiction and non-fiction are equally as important) and make sure they focus on books written before the 1900s if you really want them to develop a bright mind. Make sure they don't read anything written post 1960 to avoid modernist indoctrination.

>>526167365Replace "critical thinking" with logic. There's deductive logic and inductive logic. Then there's abductive logic and heuristics. All are necessary for thinking clearly and correctly about issues. In high-school "critical thinking" courses we learned the informal fallacies in a crude and superficial way. The problem is that informal fallacies aren't always fallacies. For instance, what is reflexively dismissed as an "ad hominem" or "slippery slope" fallacy can sometimes be a legitimate criticism or concern. Context is everything. But the high-school curriculum can't handle anything subtle or nuanced.
>>526161666In my school days in the 80's we had separate scoring for "reading and understanding" and "behaviour". Got a 8/10 in both, which was a disgrace back then.
>>526161840there are only 7 stories in fiction. you don't need a summary, you just need to know which story it is based on.boy meets girl but they are werewolves, that sort of shit.
>>526167409I don't get your point. The point of going to a university in 2026 is to get a credential, there's nothing you have that you can sell to students because what universities are selling is the prestige of the university, not knowledge or useful skills. Academia uses prestige like currency, it's why journal publications are so important to them. Instead of getting paid money, the professors get paid in citations the same way users of social media get paid with likes. The students pay to get some of this prestige when they get a diploma. The problem is the total prestige of universities has gone down (very obviously since 2020 but it was going down since 2008 when university students couldn't get jobs). Universities have been trying to build their prestige back up since 2008 by saying that the students aren't getting jobs because university is not about training but about getting an education, and I don't think this has gone over well with the general population. Prestige went down massively after 2020 after universities went to online classes instead of doing what they were supposed to do, which was being a public forum of intellectual debate. Instead of livestreaming panels of virologists, doctors, humanities professors, scientists, etc about the pros and cons of lockdowns, covid in general, gov policies, etc, they all disappeared into their corner offices, kept turning out academic papers, wore their masks, made students get vaxxed, and had zoom meetings instead of classes.
>>526162239Once we integrated the schools, it was necessary to remove reading as a graduation requirement because niggers cannot read.

We have a way harder time getting into a great college. Elites are spreading memes how studying is silly. Whites also have to pay more for their education while niggers and jews live a carefree life.

Cowards, all of them. I had one instructor at college who had the guts to say publicly right after 9/11 that the official story was bullshit and that Israeli agents played a key role in what was a false-flag operation. He was on the fast track to a very cushy position in academia, but after he spoke up about 9/11 his academic career was killed. He now teaches at a private high school instead of at Harvard or Princeton.

>>526162282Every time I have someone read something out loud to me I grind my teeth because of how much faster it is for me to read it and how much easier it is to understand and retain what's being said. It's a waste of my fucking time hearing shit read out loud. Let me read it and within two sentences I can tell if this guy is a retard with a poor way with words or not. I'll adjust how I interpret it accordingly.I'll hedge this in, saying it doesn't necessarily mean you're stupid if you can't read well, and are dyslexic or something. It just heavily leans in that direction when you hear an adult who writes repetitive sentences with no ear for the music and cadence of language, or reads periods as if they're implied "stops" like it's a telegraph.>>526162466>A country deserves the jews it has."Fuck you, goyim" is more concise.
It's not that they can't read. They have realized college education is stupid as fuck and they are doing the bare minimum to get the degree. I would ai summarize everything too if i were still in college. It's just the smart thing to do.

A decline in literacy levels always precedes the collapse of a civilization. We saw it with the Egyptians, we saw it with the Romans, and we're seeing it now. It began with taking analog clocks out of classrooms because retarded third worlders were terrified of them.
>>526169692None of the races even reach 50%.
>>526165211Originally, no child left behind was supposed to force schools to flunk retards not making the grades. Obama changed that to do whatever you feel and get promoted to the next grade.The Federal Government needs to get out of commie education decrees
>>526161666Not in defense of zoomers, but I work with people millineals and Xers and they can't read simple sentences or follow instructions. People are complete retards.

>>526169692Damning that not a single demographic is above 50%. It truly is a generational problem. Nobody expects blacks to be literate. 17% at or above grade level proficiency is 17% more than I would have expected.
>>526170076>I’m jewishWhat do you want? A tip?
>>526170252I'm black
>>526161666Now what are the demographics of these students that can't read?
>>526169797Just like with Rome we're going to see civilization contract around a few places that still cleave to old (white) traditions, and the large cosmopolitan cities are going to become completely unliveable ghettos.

>>526170230>Nobody expects blacks to be literatewhen you truly read into this it's the funniest shit.the thing is, a lot of people expect blacks to be not only literate but also productive and efficient and whatnot. after brexit the government imported so many niggers from nigeria it's not even funny because they supposedly speak English as their first language.some of them are actually curious and are capable, smart albeit culturally stunted and unsophisticated, shallow etc but some, especially their women are down right fucking lazy and borderline retarded, if not absolutely fucking retarded.I truly do not comprehend how niggers manage in today's society.

>>526168395I'm talking about something different.I basically agree with your whole post. Yes, most "academics" I meet are spastics. More like IRL Twitter bots than anything else. And honestly the jeets on Twitter are more on the pulse than them; these academics are like ShareBlue's early shilling attempts on /pol/. Even the gender diverse gen alpha think they're cringe. One of the fun parts of my job is subtly indicating to young people that these people are morons. But the goyconomy, sorry I meant economy, we now have basically insists on you having a degree to get anywhere in the professional world as yo usay. (Unless you unironically like maths, or at least like beating the Asians in your class in maths tests, then go in to the trades young white man.)>but on Tiktok I saw a nigger who started his own business and became a millionaire without-Yeah, yeah zoomies.Back in reality, what I'm talking about is a new kind of business that exists and is booming. They call themselves universities, often with at first quite impressive-sounding names. And their sole purpose is to warehouse dumb rich kids. And I don't mean dumb rich kids like that used to mean. I mean like cannot write legibly on paper with a pen dumb. But they want to go to university because that's just what people at their social level do. And they are "creative", after all.These rich kids would do much better just getting a job at a posh restaurant and going from there but nooope! Parents want university. Doesn't matter that when left on their own, the only thing they ever do is gawk at their phones.And they don't want to finally "grow up" and "get serious" to have a university experience either. They want a chill hang out with people from their socioeconomic level. And it has to be called a university.Very good money is to be made there.
>>526161666Whoa, it's almost like the flood of brown alien niggers in not our strength.
>>526162457Theres more to reading than properly being able to enunciate the words you fucking nigger. You belong with those very niggers, the real complaint from the professor was that they read it but couldnt read it(understand it) you dunce.The inability to comprehend what they just looked at, and its a very real problem with competency right now.

>>526170320The rise of the internet, and specifically remote work, marked the death knell of the city-state. The intelligentsia no longer need to live in proximity to where they work and, as such, will gradually begin to emancipate themselves from the degenerate clutches of the established population centers. Rural life will no longer draw the ire and derision of the cosmopolitan elite; it'll become a sign of affluence and status - this transition started decades ago.

I finished engineering college during the pandemic and started my job Everyone was top level intelligence and the course work was grueling, But i came back 2 years ago to get my MBA as a requirement of promotion at my company and the students in the lower level business classes who are 18 can't even read sentences off the board and the course-work was 10th grade level course-work. I got my masters last month, and i never had to study one day for any classes. I might continue onwards and get my doctorate, but if i get to doctorate level courses and the students are functionally illiterate I'm gonna be terrified. Online learning is a fuckng joke and doesn't work never hire a retard who got their education online, because it's like hiring someone to fuck your wife whose only experience is watching pornhub.
>>526162239College has been a scam for decades, and it's only getting worse. The primary purpose of college is to put people in debt so they are forced to work for the next 30 years paying off their retarded student loans, on top of all the other things they financed in their lives.
>>526162239Whenever you hear these stories about "Gen Z is incredibly stupid and can't do anything even though they got into higher learning, how is this happening?", they are talking about nigs who got passed through the school system because of things like no child left behind and diversity quota's.
>>526161907The opposite is true. Most people can't speak English faster than 100 words per minute. I can read at 250+ words per minute. I have to put youtube videos on double speed just to equal the time I could digest all the information in it by just reading a transcript.Reading is WAY more efficient than audio. By a factor of at least 2, possibly 3 in some cases.

>>526171975It's great isn't it.

>>5261722095th grade or lower is considered illiterate. I can't stop thinking about how politics is determined largely by online communities like Reddit/Twitter/Blue Sky and politicians and users genuinely think that that's the average level of intelligence and they base their views on that fact when in reality 75% of the country are absolutely retarded knuckle dragging animals. Politicians and redditors don't interact with the truly average person in America so they have no clue how close we are to a complete collapse from stupidity. We're a decade away from being unable to keep the lights on and our faucets running because there will be no one left smart enough to perform the upkeep. Academics don't do that shit and they expect tradesman to just keep performing the same, fairly high IQ tasks they've done for decades despite the fact that their IQ is PLUMMETING. If we don't institute IQ requirements there's no chance we manage to keep the lights on by 2040. And these fucks think IQ is a fucking pseudo-science because apparently the concept of "shapes" and "patterns" and "numbers" is white culture that shitskins can't be expected to understand because it's racist. (Even though Asian countries top the IQ scores every time, I've been told this is because they're highly westernized and no other reason)
