Or he just didn’t pay attention in class when it was taught. A lot of students treat history as irrelevant. It doesn’t help that a lot of public school history teachers are the equivalent of a dad watching World War 2 documentaries. Lots of them basically teach history so they can be a coach instead. Because public schools don’t hire independent coaches, and require all of them to teach something. So the coaches tend to fall into teaching history, because it’s easier than learning to teach calculus or chemistry.
He doesn’t look that young. I can’t imagine somehow missing the post 9/11 fallout and the war in the Middle East. The 20 year anniversary of it wasn’t as extravagant as the 10 year. But as an American it was kinda hard to ignore.
If he’s from outside the us and like just turned 18 maybe. But like how does one even miss all of the memes about it? I guess even those have died down too.
Yeah, this is definitely wrong. My younger brothers are significantly younger than 35 right now, and they still remember where they were when it happened.
Anyone who is older than 25 existed when the towers fell, which is significantly younger than 35. Whether a kid much younger than 11 can remember where he was when it happened is another question, but the math is correct.
COMPLETELY agreed. No Child Left Behind made WAY too many fucking idiots think that they’re up to standard of “functioning human being”, when that is demonstrably not the case.
He is either not a US American, or the “Never Forget” nation forgot to properly teach him.
I live in one of those “never forget” nations that promised to never forget something… but it seems that we, too, managed to forget.
I feel you so much right now.

i’d say anyone under 35 wasn’t really aware for it.

nonexistent?
2026-2001=25
36-25=11
11>0
🙄 Your math is bad. Read what they said closer

35 might be an exaggeration, they would have been around 9 years old, old enough to remember something.
see: forgot to properly teach him.
I’d say they made the attempt, but if he didn’t listen that much, the problem is them passing him, not attempting to teach him.
that is definitely a problem of the US education system. The “no child left behind” policy is absolute garbage.
