Yeah a handful of randoms on the street not knowing mental arithmetic are definitely the problem. Nothing to do with 14 years of Tory government systematically squeezing people into poverty to line their own pockets while sewing constant seeds of cultural division to distract from it.
This is literally the power of media don’t you see? How easy it is to create a video and select a minority of really dumb answers and leave the intelligent ones out, or only asking a specific crowd in a specific area. You are judging the state of an entire country based of nothing really
The Forrest could see that it was shrinking, but all the trees kept voting for the axe. Because the axe was very crafty and said, see my handle it is made from wood and I am just like you.
The fast forward guy seemed like he wasn't a native English speaker and, to be fair, "slow backwards" is a pretty logical answer. Anyway, I'm gonna go get a cup of tea and a buickest.
Lots of words have multiple definitions, or don't you know that? Just look in a dictionary some time. There are a huge number of words for various groups of animals. Like a murder of crows, my favorite. So to me, not knowing one isn't a big deal at all.
How do they get loans, cars, finance, Mortgages, just walk in the first bank they find and sign on the line and not calculate the interest rate, compare or work out the monthly. 🤔 Mind-blowing .
@@thebesttheworst2277I know, they’ll receive the loan letter through the post saying the interest is 800% and they’ll call the loan company saying they can pay £2 a week 😂
Thing is, notice he was in multiple locations? it's taken him ages to find 10 stupid people for this video, he will have found far more people who answered all the questions corectly.
@Sabhaois you could make one of these videos anywhere in the world. Interview 20 people in a low income area, and keep the take of the person who fucked up.
I was surprised to learn recently that there are adults nowadays who cannot tell the time, unless it's a digital clock, and some can't even read a digital clock in the 24hr mode. So, if it's 19:05, they would have no idea what time of the day it is, and if you show them an analog clock, it would be like showing them some highly scientific apparatus that is beyond their comprehension.
This is the actual proof of what calculators and technology do to you . We are so reliant upon outside things to solve our problems that when we are in a position to think critically majority go numb and blank and freeze
Before smartphones it was common practice to know several phone numbers but nowadays ppl don't even know the number of their own spouse, me included 😂😂😂😂
@@RileySerola how crazy ! You’re so correct mate , I used to know my mom , sister and stepdad dad’s number with ease ! Now struggle to remember my own 😅 They have really well and truly dumbed us all down to the point that we are just like zombies most the time and don’t even realise it
@@ajaytranter2655 Ain't that the truth! It's why I insist on never taking a shopping list with me and the Mrs is looking at me mad and I tell her I want to challenge myself to remember everything I need.
In my opinion, it's foolish to blame things outside of yourself for your own foolishness. God gave us free will. We just choose to use things that make life on earth easier.
It's interesting and slightly sad how many people immediately panic and give up. I bet if they stopped and thought about it, some would actually get it. I think a lot of people are smarter than they give themselves credit for.
He probably asks 20 people the same question and 19 give the correct answer. Dismiss the 19 and only upload the one daft answer. Then on to the next question and repeat.
I'm a high school drop out with only a GED who also grew up poor. Now at 50 yrs of age I own 3 brick and mortar businesses that do ok. I've always told folks that ask how I did it that I'm not the smartest guy. I'm not even the hardest working guy. But what I've always had is tenacity and investment plans. I don't give up. It may take me longer to cross the finish line. But I will cross it. I was ignorant on so many things when I first took over my first business. But I learned and grew. I'm a slow learner also. But again, I keep going, most times you don't need to be smart to succeed but consistent, i pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life too
You're absolutely right, Sometimes, it's not about having a talent, skill, knowing some set of maths. But what if I told you that with the right investment, you can still achieve your goals? No talent, no skill, no passion, but good investment can bring you financial freedom. Don't underestimate the power of right financial decisions
I agree with you and I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don't know who agrees with me but you still need to be smart though
Honestly I keep wondering how people earn money in financial markets, i tried several times on my own made a huge loss and now I'm scared of investing more, I'm also tried doing two jobs but still not be able to pay bills
@@Soboj-oy8meUnderstand your financial needs and making effective decisions is very essential. If I could advise you, you should seek the help of a financial advisor. For the record, working with one has been the best for my finances....
I mean if you wanna be technical, yes the opposite of fast is slow and the opposite of forward is backwards, but the opposite of the term fast forward, is rewind … just saying. 🤣👌🏼
I guess in times of social media all ppl in the west are getting equally dumb, you could ask the same stuff in any big city in Germany and the result would look the same, sad
I grew up taking a lot of drugs, and even i found this depressing at how peoples brains struggle to function. I blame the constant use of mobile phones. (Typed from a mobile phone 😂)
@@pennywise146 voted?? Lololol 🤣😂 Do you think they knew how to? But, Tories would be more accurate. Liz Truss school of mathematics and Therese Coffey's grasp of geography.
@@thebesttheworst2277yes some questions require context. For instance the one about which is there more of on eartfmh land or water? With reference to what surface area or mass?
... Crazy to think if a white guy did it and the clip found it's way onto Twitter/X, he'd probably be out of a job and next month's mortgage payment before he can say Goodness Gracious Me.
I live in a country where there are a few people like this. However the majority are able to answer questions of this level correctly. I find it hard to believe that this is not more than a little selective to exaggerate the reality. In every society there are a spectrum of people, so I don't think this is an accurate representation of the general public.
@@Endlesssummer1 I don't know I just find it funny, it'll be like asking an English lad with a Cockney accent in India to name two countries anywhere from around the world and he names England and Ireland.
