Ignorance in todays youth

Ignorance, it seems to be a plague on today's youth, I should know I'm one of them. It seems to me that many of today's youth use not good grammar, and if you do use good grammar, or make it sound like you know what your talking about you'll get made fun of or considered a loser,nerd,etc. etc. it sickens me that people refuse to sound intelligent and somehow that makes you cool. Modern day youth also seem to have ignorant ideals ranging from racism, sexism, and even frankly stupid ideas (such as all liberals are gay). I find it absolutely astounding that America is filled with these ignorant fools that do not care about fellow man and do not want to even try to strive for more than mediocrity, this is not the America I am proud of and it is not the America I want to live in. Ignorance is not bliss, it is stupidity, selfishness, and dangerous
