Edit: wanted to clarify I mean the young/clueless in addition to reading comprehension issues.

I seem to become forgetful into old age that the schools aren't teaching the "youngens" ancient history.

They seem to teach them till the 1920s-30s and then stop or cram it all in fast, as if nothing important happened recently (or so it seems from most of the teens ice talked to).

Since I remember something similar when I was in school only a couple of decades ago, I'd say it's more a case of "we're getting old" combined with "damn education curriculum is all fscked up"
