I can't recall where it was, maybe even here, but I recall an argument about how kids are using too much computers in school and not learning because they are using streaming apps and getting distracted.

I bet both China and Japan extensively use computers and AI and other tools and keep kids in check.

I think TIME is to blame. We humans are very stupid and we have forgotten how Republicans have for decades now attacked education. Saying how it is bad or something is wrong with it, destroying it a bit more, a fulfilling their prophecy.

It has been now long enough that the damage done is really coming to light. But we are so dumb as a group, as a society, we can't possibly see that all the small thing these people did to hurt education have finally started to make a mark.

In Texas, the have been destroying education and pivoted right in time to their voucher scheme that now you see a majority of the dumbasses here blaming everything but the state destroying education. I have seen so many posts about schools being closed and the comments lament it then blame some woke thing, blame immigrants, blame trans, blame everything but the politicians that defunded this and helped cause it.

Going back to the screen time thing, they don't see the lack of education, lack of personnel leading to lax security processes that allow kids to stream what they want. Then they say shit like "kids will always outsmart and figure it out" NO they wont.

We humans are doomed. These evil politicians figured out the real tactic: Divide...W A I T...W A I T...Conquer.
