it's probably lower now than pre-brexit, but it was (relatively) common to see people encountering the idea that ireland was a separate country for the first time during all those discussion

i absolutely believe the holocaust should be taught in schools (and maybe taught more thoroughly as regards the culture of silence at the time)

i also believe that it's entirely possible to find 8% of recentish graduates who have no idea about things there were told multiple times, on many subjects

always wonder how these questions are asked, could be that some people don't recognise the term "holocaust" (maybe a problem itself)

even if asked properly, 8% of a young cohort ignorant of something that happened 80 years ago doesn't seem mad. could get similar numbers for events in their lifetime

4) The Old Man and the Sea

Had never read this before, and absolutely loved it. Was on the edge of my seat for him finally catching the fish, and was so stressed about the sharks. Really appreciated the celebration of stubbornness. Old Man has that sigma grindset.
