The fact that the current generation seems largely to shun intelligence and favor ignorance. It's this kind of mindset that started the Dark Ages.

Ignorant people who think that animal lovers only like "the cute and fluffy". Apparently, fish and snakes aren't animals, then.

I wouldn't say this is true. The current young generation is statistically the most liberal and open-minded yet. Bigoted beliefs and attitudes fade out more and more with every new generation. Kids today are still the best educated generation yet, so just try to imagine people were actually even worse in the past, even if nobody noticed because everyone was really ignorant at the time and nobody was around to have a dissenting opinion. :P

The world is far from perfect but at least in the first world, it's actually improving - slowly but surely - with each year. 70 years ago would you expect to have an African American president in the United States or that we'd have gay marriage actually allowed (in some places, at least)? That we'd actually one day have zoos where the welfare of the animals is foremost, where the barren concrete cages are a thing of the past? Had we been going as we had been back then, we'd have virtually no forest left in this country, but we've had enough thought to save at least some, and the ecological consensus towards ecological preservation and green energy is slowly growing every year even with big oil trying its best to stop it. Indeed, much of the world still has a long way to go, and especially some of the old world (Uganda..) is apparently going backwards into the dark ages on some issues, but I really doubt this can last; look how Americans or Europeans were a few hundred years ago, burning witches and gay people as demons and clubbing the last great auk because they thought it was a witch. I find it likely even these troubled areas will /eventually/ come their senses as we have at least started to. Though in the "civilized" world, many people and kids are idiots, kids were always and probably will always be idiots. That's just how kids are, I think. None of us here are probably very "normal" kids/young adults. Statistically, we're still becoming less idiotic every generation. We just have to wait a bit longer for the process to finish. xD

They used the 'bully' word. I don't think this word means what they claim it means. Apparently, to them, not discriminating anyone is discriminating those who want to discriminate. Wat.

My speakers have developed a habit of emitting a weird, ticking sound. I should probably consider getting new ones, 8 years is apparently their life expectancy. I got so attached though. :L

@Sheather: Did the last Great Auk really get killed because it was thought to be a witch? That's ridiculous and horrible.

Anyway, you're right. I was mainly basing my opinion on the behaviour of the kids at my school, and as you said: kids will always be idiots due to the fact that most are too young to have much experience or knowledge.
