Stevo 639 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 This looks scripted. People can't be that ignorant. This just reinforces the stereotype that Americans are stupid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luxe Ford 3,481 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I think they asked heaps of people and chose the worst ones. I'm terrible at geography, and wasn't 100% sure I was correct. I was (yay me!). There are ignorant people everywhere and many people just don't care where countries are. Someone here thought Scadinavia was a country. I know where certain cities in the U.S. are, but am not quite sure what constitites the Midwest. Hold on, imma go find out!

It might actually very well be - these types of videos are staged a quite considerable amount of time... Also it's worth noting that lack of knowledge in geography doesn't necessarily reflect one's critical thinking abilities... I've spoken with quite a few people who possessed heaps of factual knowledge but were still remarkably dumb and unreasonable It's a joke! When you give me that look, it's a joke!

It wouldn't be entertaing if they showed clips of people pointing to North Korea. Notice that not a single person knew where it was which is very unlikely. This is not an accurate poll of the American people. Hands up to the sky, I'm about to fly! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
