Death's Stranding's ending was the most convoluted endless dogshit that anyone has ever pooped out and I liked the game and Kojibberish up until then and still do. You cannot possibly win on this subject which is why you'll ignore this post and scroll.
Nah, game's amazing. Story's total nonsense though, and Sam often feels like a non-entity because all his backstory's in emails and he almost never says anything to anyone. >tfw going back to the area near Lake Knot and finding the ladder I placed on my first trip to the engineer >so used it has trails leading to and away from it >going back to the elder >he doesn't answer the terminal >hologram of a BT shows up
are the Japanese any better? I know they are (superficially?) more polite, civilized, cleaner, well behaved, what have you, but is that because of social conformism or better education/intellectual development?
Our education system has become dumbed down year after year. It is all a means of keeping the people like sheep, keeping people in low paying jobs and so forth. Anyone can excel beyond it, but not everyone wants to put in the effort.
Poor people are poor because they are stupid. This is how America works.
You don't have the funds for public schooling. It's a 3rd world shithole because you'd rather spend your taxes on waging illegal proxy wars instead of improving your country's basic infrastructure.
>You don't have the funds for public schooling
We do, though. Public schooling is funded dominantly by property tax and federal subsidy. What interferes are kids who would rather live the thug life gang culture instead of bettering themselves. The dismantling of the atomic family is leading America into a transitionary period that we are experiencing right now.
Alas, this part of the subject belongs on /misc/ or elsewhere, not Ganker. Death Stranding is a fantastic game, and while the writing is a little silly in many places filled with red herrings, it is a Kojima game at its core. I hate fetch quests, but somehow I loved Death Stranding. The PS5 directors cut made the experience even better. I have European friends that hated the game, and the only people I've met that appreciate Death Stranding are typically American. It's just easy to blame criticism on American education.
So how come Black folk in developing countries are far better behaved and have an education and a job?
Your "muh nogs" excuse doesn't fly with me, shitskin.

They didn't have the external influence that American blacks do.
>I eat a ton of fast food >Proceeds to whine about race
Lmao the joke writes itself
It's not so much whining about race as it is culture. Which is influenced by external sources that need to be expelled.

Anon your middle school iq test is worth as much as those INTP personality quizes. The most amazing thing is that you write long winded posts trying to sound smart, but you're too dumb to understand all you're doing is proving yourself wrong. I hope you don't do that IRL lmao. In fact, I bet you think people IRL won't let you "speak the truth" cause of all the Black folk and hispanics too huh.

I took more tests later in life, and was a member of Mensa. I agree that middle school IQ tests are shit. I was more pointing out how the alleged smartest person in the school was just good at memorizing bullshit which is how our education system is built. >speak the truth
No. I speak my mind wherever I go. Only ever once got threatened by my opinions because I made an Anne Frank joke at a bar.

The US education system is par for the world, the main difference is that the averages are dragged down by Black folk and spics. Our system could be improved, but it's not the problem identified by these comparisons.

This is a cope.
Who do you think spends more per student, the US or South Korea? Who do you think scores better in math? Which two demographics do you suppose score the lowest in the US? How do you suppose white-identifying students compare to students in predominantly-white countries?
So how come even "white" americans are fricking moronic regardless?

American Zoomer who graduated high-school only a couple years ago here, I can tell you exactly why American school spending is so high with so little results. They spend their budgets on a bunch of nonsense technology that will never be used because moronic boomers think throwing a chromebook at a 5 year old kid will make them learn better, or how my middle class public high school wasted God knows how much money putting up a bunch of massive flat screens in the hallways that literally just displayed a static JPG of our school's mascott. My senior year I took a class called "Computer Matinence" where the entire class was just them handing us discarded computers and other miscellaneous technology and telling us to take them apart and put them back together, and there were MOUNTAINS of computers, laptops, printers, monitors, etc. and most of them weren't cheap either that they just had nothing left to do with, so they handed them to us to monkey around with.

You're right that money isn't spent wisely. Generally people are much more expensive than equipment, though, and what I've read suggests that a lot of the money goes toward a bloat in administrative staff. In any case, teaching a student math or reading or history doesn't really require money beyond finding a non-idiot teacher.
>21% of adults in USA look at english language the same way I look at hieroglyphs >54% of adults in the USA can pronounce words and letters but don't understand the content.
How can you not fricking read? English isn't even a complex language there's not that many rules compared to some.
You learn to read during first grade(maybe even earlier for some) and you just get better at it as you go.
What are they doing in burger schools?
Let me guess you don't eat that much fast food, correct? cause im convinced amerimutts who eat less fast food have a higher IQ than the typical american. I swear there is something in your trash ass food that makes you Black folk this fricking stupid.
I eat a ton of fast food. A lot of what has to do with the "dumb americans" is culture. The influx of black culture on white Americans has glorified ignorance and stupidity to focus on shit music and sports - rather than both sports and academia. THen there's always the people who are book smart that think they're smarter than everyone and they're always buttholes - and so smart people are seen as buttholes.
Freshman year we were all tested on IQ. Because I did not have good grades, yet tested high, mine was considered a fluke and was not allowed to retake it. The valedictorian and "smartest" girl in school had an IQ of 114. I tested 138.
>All your innovations were either stolen or imported from other nations.
The space program, sure. There are plenty of other notable American inventions, however. Without us Nuclear Power wouldn't be near what it is today. We had some smart motherfrickers born pre 1940.

Are you trolling? Literally every 1st world nation shit all over the USA.
Americans don't even have a proper basic education system so what do you think?
New Mexico is American?
That's not part of America though
Yes it is.
It's a state that has more white people than texas funny enough.
Californians have been moving to Texas, so that's not surprising.
Yeah, mutts are so dumb that they name an state after the name of the country they stole that land from.
