1. And they wonder why things are a mess! n/t

[valerief]

2. This is like a Kimmel skit. He proves how stupid Americans are, too. nt

[Dustlawyer]

3. So sad it's not even funny.

[DustyJoe]

4. publik skool edumacation

American history with current public education emphasis on politically correct social graces and studies is a lost cause.
Universities are not far behind with credit courses on ' (insert social cause here) Studies ' courses.

1776 to millenials seems to be a Walmart sale price.

[SoapBox]

6. I blame some on

brainwash'n home skool'n.

[yuiyoshida]

5. This is so very sad.

[valerief]

9. What conspiracy theory is in the clip? nt

[progressiveinnarb]

10. not in this clip

[valerief]

11. Okay, so we both agree the content in this clip is not a conspiracy theory. nt

[progressiveinnarb]

12. Of course we do I wasnt saying this was a conspiracy theory.

14. What you are doing is a famous fallacy...

Attack the messenger and not the message.

[demwing]

17. only if your intent is to discredit the message

if you're just dissing on the messenger because he's a conspiracy nut (we're talking Alex Jones level nutty), it's just fine!

[Red Knight]

19. He's a nut.

Apparently Lady Gaga is a member of the Illuminati and Satan worshipper.

And HE'S the guy making fun of Americans and calling them idiots?

While I have no doubt many Americans have no clue about the 4th of July, this clueless idiot is hardly the guy to highlight it.

[LiberalLovinLug]

8. Wow

Not even to remember that England was the colonizing country you fought? After not only school history lessons, which are already very heavy on American history as opposed to world history, but so many Hollywood films and TV productions through the decades as well to draw from.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

13. There are idiots who believe WWII was when we fought WITH the Germans against the Soviets.

[Enrique]

15. 1984

it was broadcast live on MTV

[Leontius]

16. And these people are allowed to vote on the future of our country.

[valerief]

18. Vote and HAVE BABIES.

Oh, yeah, and guns. Lots and lots of guns.

[SwissTony]

20. Selective editing?

I'm an Aussie not an American and I'm sure if you asked 100 Aussies about something, you'd find enough people who are absolutely clueless about whatever subject was raised. Just leave out those who give half-decent answers and voila...a funny tape.

And anyway, even if this IS representative, so what? This is not information people need to know in their daily life.
