Dumber Than Your Parents! · Wake Up Dude & Keep It Real
⁘ “So I took a little piss on Gen Z. Dumber than their parents! So yes it's a fact — for the first time in roughly 200 years. Cognitive capacity blurring. Attention spans dropping. Memory and recall are weaker. Literacy obviously in the pits. Negative structural changes to your brains. Even life expectancy dropping. Unburdened by common sense, definitions, principles in your life. You are so lost. Are we stoked yet? Keep it real.”
So I took a little piss on Gen Z,
saying that they're dumber than their parents,
and some members of the rising generation
are feeling very upset.
So yes, it's a fact that
for the first time in roughly 200 years,
you are scoring lower than the generation before
in standard academic and cognitive tests.
Attention spans are dropping,
memory and recall are weaker,
and literacy obviously is in the pits.
Hell, most of you don't survive
a single well-rounded paragraph.
"Can you give it to me in a one-liner bullet point list,
please?" Well, sure.
With all of that,
there are negative structural changes to your brains,
and also your brain is aging at a faster rate.
No surprise there.
You're burning it randomly.
Even your life expectancy is dropping.
What do you expect when your brain is going defunct?
Then some are saying maybe it's not devolution,
maybe we're just evolving in a different direction.
Like into futuristic multi-process attention deficit
multi-process scatter beings, right?
Unburdened by common sense,
definitions, principles in your life.
"Don't know, don't care, bro!"
You are so lost.
Think about what actually matters in life.
So that's all folks.
Are we stoked yet?
Keep it real.
