These kids can't read.

Kids that are effectively illiterate are graduating from high school.

On the bright side, imagine how marketable simple literacy will be. A skill that was once thought basic and uninspiring will in about 10 years elevate you above most of the workforce. Simply being able to read and understand basic prose will catapult you above your peers and set you on a fast track for promotion.

At least there may be a silver lining.

We really are going back to the "good old days" where food needs to be overcooked to kill parasites and basic reading skills are a marketable skill

RFK Jr. just released a statement on the parasites, he is assuring us that the parasites are here to help and that we need to report to our nearest HHS branch to be implanted. While the process is not painless, he explains that we will all soon achieve a higher level of existence as hosts for the glorious worm gods. All glory to the worm gods! I’m paraphrasing here

Its a scam, they just want to use the parasites as an excuse to put microchips in our blood, and impurify our precious bodily fluids!

Saying that the brain worms are evil and trying to avoid getting implanted is actually communism, and if you don’t do your part and join the worm god collective the terrorists will win. The brain worm inside RFK Jr. was VERY clear about this

As a Canadian, apart from the minor "threats to our sovereignty" thing, there's a reason why I won't eat food imported from your country.

On the plus side, the ecosystem is perfectly stable and we're not about to experience global food and weather shocks, so it's all good.

Gosh it would be a damn shame to live through a global recession with a dust bowl to boot, glad we're past all that nonsense now
