Just Kids: Part II

by Jim Kopetz




    The above image is the signature of a 20-something man who's name is not in fact Bremt, but Brent. He is not mentally or physically disabled in any way. His only handicap is that he was educated through a public school system...


    Where did we go wrong? Is there a time to be pointed out when the cult of idiocy was born and sold wholesale through movies and television and culture in general? When reading a book was considered admirable and enjoyable? When politicians didn't deride scientists and experts as "nerds"? Take a look at our future...


   Fuck.

    
    Shit.


    Oh Sweet Jesus.


   
    Its gotten to the politicians.



    Religion too?


    
    10...years...old. That's all it takes to go from the humor of idiocy to the sadness of reality. What the fuck is going on? Who are the parents? Who are the teachers? Who are the priests and pastors and imams? Who are our politicians? Our mentors? Who are our parents? Who are we?

    Where did we go wrong? THIS is the prelude to the end of the world.
