Oh man. After watching this I have very little hope for the future of our country.

It only took him a minute and a half to fumble his way through a 15 second task. I gave it a like because we don't have a WTH? option. 
And remember, they vote.

They probably have no idea what the can opening tool on a Swiss Army knife is.

The best car anti-theft device against a millennial is to have a manual transmission.

C-rats and a P38 would be the end of the world for them. Ho hum for us old timers.

This is not a new problem .
About 1965 I was helping my dad
Wire a new grocery store . We
we're waiting to wire a walk-in
meat cooler while two over weight
gentlemen hung the door on it.
After watching for way to long
my father (a gentleman) told
the two over weight gentlemen ,
If you fellows used a knife and fork
like you use hand tools you would
of starved to death a long time ago.
Then told me to quit laughing at the
poor guys. It did not help I was still
Laughing when they left , and door
Still did not work right.

This is all our fault, you know. We didn't talk to them at all or teach them a freaking thing.
Instead we bought them IPhones, TVs for their rooms and new cars as soon as they were old enough to drive.
While we had to get a part time job to get any "luxuries", we gave them all the money they ever needed.
During Spring break we worked, but then we gave them money for vacations in Florida.
Clean you room, help with the dishes, cut the grass, etc.? Nope, we did it for them.
After all my complaints I must admit that they aren't ALL that way. But I truly believe the percentage of morons is higher now.

Reminds me of a group that was completely bamboozled by a rotary-dial telephone.
Give him credit for perserverence, he did get it done.
And considering that there are more than THREE TIMES the number of people on this rock than there were when most of us were born, that's a LOT of morons!
I bet my grandfather wouldn't think much of my blacksmithing skills lol

Most assuredly they can. Not all but way to many.
I just can't think it's this bad, yet. Surely, that is a group of mentally challenged(not just because they're millennial) kids & getting that can open is step forward in their healing.
That's my story & I want to believe it.

This guy posts nothing but inflammatory garbage on YouTube, with the sole intent of gaining subscribers. I don't believe for a minute that this is an actual classroom video. It was obviously pieced together.
While many young people are idealistic and know little about history, a majority are not that stupid. Some of them are, but the same can be said about many past generations.

I think this was supposed to be some kind of performance art. This doesn't alter the fact that we are doomed.

These people will never experience that satisfaction of slamming a telephone down on the receiver rather than pushing an "End Call" touch button.

Some years back (35+) I drove a handset completely through a Merlin desk system. My Dad broke the hook of a (rotary dial) wall phone while vigorously hanging up.

I understand the "911 Emergency Call" was
geared to the dial phone. The numbers were
the easiest to handle under stress.

This is an example of why after the impending EMP destroys the fragile power grid, urban kids like those will starve out in short order while country folks will survive.
There's no question in my mind that if any of the<30 crowd were to have to go without their phones for 48 hours there would be suicides and/or widespread panic. Some, like my grandson, have never known a time when he wasn't inches away from his phone. He can't carry on a conversation, follow direction or think for himself. Ane he's normal.

Spot on. That guy is very adept and successful with one of these.
These things probably work both ways. The younger generations would probably be rolling on the floor watching this old Luddite taking 20 minutes to do something on a computer that they would do in 20 seconds.
