    the problem is not lack of education among the general population, who are on average better equipped than ever. the problem continues to be a sharp decline in capability among our very brightest, who for whatever reason we stopped properly educating about a century ago.https://twitter.com/wilks_isaac/status/1216403515742007299 …

    It’s truly humbling to find yourself a pale shadow of what it used to mean to be educated. And it’s not just misplaced nostalgia: this is the Harvard entrance exam for the year 1869. It’s INSANE 185/210 candidates passed this test!!!!!!!!! https://www.businessinsider.com/harvard-entry-exam-2011-7 …

        The government turned public schools into standardized factories with lowering standards over generations. Politicians + Gov. Meddling + Teacher Unions = Our Schools

        we focus on lowest common denominator ("math is racist," homeless in SF). so culturally we raise our worst in terms of degeneracy (cardi b, lizzo, tr*ns, etc) to the top.. mostly all a function of toxic media and poor propaganda

        Education has been 'diluted' by design so that students have to go back and pay for a more complete one. A bachelor has less value than before, and even graduate school is not enough in some fields that require multiple post-docs in industry. Thank the progressive left for this.

        Funny how this is news now...but this is the result of the propagandistic system of 20th c breaking down under weight of reality. It’s been the problem for a long time. This is the problem with the IQ debates. Important, but means little if you don’t know what to do with it...

        In my experience it has nothing to do with decline of "people". It's the cost of college. People can't get the education because costs are wildly inflated -- a giant weight holding people down at every step of the process, from high school to grad school, crushing everybody.

        Watching my own kids go through high school, I'm amazed at the sheer volume/quality they learn. It's at least 2x what I and other boomers learned in the 70s The idea that "kids aren't educated these days" might be true for low-income, I don't know, but for middle class, no way

        this is nuts, if you took "our very brightest" and subjected them to a decade of rote memorization and penmanship exercises they would rightly rebel

        elites are distributed basically randomly, this type of education is for producing the middle layer, soldiers of the mind
