Every generation has its own stupidity. I was speaking of the level of incompetence of both the millennials and the Gen-Y-ers based on national testing results in schools. More and more children fail schools these days thus becoming stupid. Some people are born dumb, and that can't be helped. It's what their parents give them. But stupidity is achieved through laziness and ignorance. These last 2 factors have run rampant in society (at least in the US, but more of the rest of the world as well) and thus the general population keeps getting dumber and dumber. I mean, f**king Donald Trump might become the next president of the US, as if that actually meant anything. The country will still be controlled by the same people who have controlled it for the last half century, but it's the symbolism of it that is astonishing. Idiocracy is beginning. And it won't take us 500 years to get there.Shadowman wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:In IQ points of the average person...this trend reversed as the new millennium began.

To be fair, is it because they're dumber, or is it because the easy access to the internet just made it easier to put on display? Or is it because we're jaded adults and we forgot how truly stupid we were as kids? For God's sake, mine was the generation that made pogs and yoyos into fads!

Yeah, that was back when they thought you could get AIDS by high-fiving a gay guy.
