>>114775219>kids might not be fooled byAn aside, but this is more relevant than you'd think.
People drastically underestimate the effect the internet has had on younger generations. Boomers still think children are as innocent and naive as they were before (and even then kids weren't fucking innocent, they just didn't know a lot of things because of limited information or access to it), but as a substitute teacher, I have students as young as 10 questioning the nature of the educational system and why teachers are always lying-through-smiles about things the kids can obviously can find the truth about with a brief google search on their phones or in the computer lab.
Kids are aware of more shit than older generations give them credit for. True, they don't fully realize how to use the internet to actually maximize their knowledge and gain insane amounts of power from it, but what little they get fed to them, even just through popular youtubers, actually gets them thinking about a lot of shit even my generation wouldn't consider at those ages. Kids these days are aware of almost whatever you can be, and they don't like being talked down to when they know what's up.
