      These aren't Zoomers, these are Gen Alphas: The generation unfortunate enough to be locked inside and forced to go to school online during their most formative years due to a common flu. Their childhoods and futures were selfishly stolen by a gaggle of elderly politicians and CEOs so they could gain more power over the masses. They deserve our pity; the elites deserve the camps.

    I can attest to this. There's alittle kid in church whom I believed was still a toddler. Always stuck with some Cocomelon or Little Baby Bum all throughout service. He is barely capable of communicating verbally, and in fact, I can't even remember if he has ever said a coherent sentence
    Apparently he's already in kinder.
    I keep thanking my mom for teaching me to read at age 3. Whoever learned to read at a young age should also go thank their parents or whoever teached them. The future is grim

    We won't ever get to the point where no one reads. But this is fascinating, it's like we're seeing the Shudra caste creating itself in real time. It's gonna be a good time to be an intellectual.

    Audience has always been small. Mass education didn't change that. It confirmed it.

    too many foreigners are making the schools turn standards back but honestly i think there'll be a literature renaissance soon either way because of a.i, more people will be interested in actually creating stuff themselves. maybe it's just cope but idk i don't think normies will care for a.i books so they'll make their own based on their own experiences.

      Explain how most of the students who get the best grades in UK schools are Asians and Indians?

    parents should read to their kids every night until middle school
    that will probably build a habit and love for reading, and the problem will get fixed in a couple of years

    reading in increasing as the amount of english speakers is increasing. However, it seems like it's just a small percentage of people who are reading more. I know for a fact gen Z are largely illiterate. it's directly correlated to non-whites.

      Useful reference point, most school districts require students to be 5 years old by June or July 1st when entering kindergarten the same school year. There is often also T-1 or transitional first grade required for students that underperform in K1 (T-1 is also called K2, sometimes). All this is done by county and state so it's not set in stone but is generally true.

      I believe we inherited the use of ordinals from an older form of English, public education was a thing in the US very early. Most never made it to grammar schools. I'm not entirely sure, but I think the bongs used to also use ordinal nomenclature.

      The person that said 11 is a Black person, disregard him.
