Just saw this on Reddit. Makes a lot of sense now.

I was one of only three students in my freshman high school English class reading at a college level. Sad, sad, sad.

From the Reddit thread:

Un-freakin-believeable.

I was reading 12-9 at 5-9.

Damn, that's early. I think we started high school around 7:20 am :)

Well, that's what happens when you flood the country with undesirables.

They're already 'dumbing" things down now so these idiots can move on to the next grade. It's just going to get worse from here.

Americans are dumb asses? Shocking.

Carry on.

It's hard to argue with that when you look at this map.

My home state of Louisiana has the highest incarceration rate in the country, double the nation average.




Guess what else it leads the nation in... single mother households.

It's not a coincidence.

What nationality are you?

If I'm not mistaken, you're an American New Yorker, correct? So let me ask you, what is the reason Americans are so dumb and how can it be fixed?

Here's a free online literacy test:

If you score above a 6th grade level I will castrate myself on live stream.

And no using ChatGPT!

you need to be banned!

Isn't anyone else going to tell OneHungLo that other countries also let foreigners (undesirables) into their country as well? Yet their education level is much higher.

I don't think it's the people that are letting the country down but your educational system nor can you be prejudice and just blame foreigners for dropping America's intelligence.

Banned for asking you, with over 70,000 posts to prove you have a higher than room temperature IQ?

LOL @ you thinking forum post are an educational test!!! ok Mr AI with the AI confusion not surprised there...

Well we know you don't.

^ Still in Louisiana, eh KeyboardWarrior? Keeping that national average down!

I'm a top 5%er in every statistical category of qualities women seek in a mate. Cope.

America is still using Imperial System while the rest of the world use Metric System. It means a lot about the backwardness of American brains. :(

We should care more about numbers than literacy, but this is terrible

Talk about quixotism preaching education on a porn peddling place . . .

What other country has millions and millions of low IQ people illegally flooding into their country for the last decade?

I'll wait..

And I never said foreigners were undesirables; it's the illegals jumping the line. My doctor from Iran isn't an undesirable. It's the illegals that would never be let in here in the first place because they have zero skills but criminality.

This is huge and I still can't believe nobody addresses the elephant in the room.

Black people, start raising your kids right and break the cycle.

You need literacy lessons.

It has been brought to my attention that you report many of my posts on *********** since you simply can't handle the truth.
