Fox reporter finds Memorial Day morons who don’t even know what holiday is for: ‘America’s birthday?’
These beach bozos put up a memorial to their cluelessness.
Fox News’ “Jesse Watters Primetime” was back on the beaches for Memorial Day finding the dumbest GenZ revelers in California — just months after pulling off a similar stunt with Florida’s spring breakers.
Many of the college-aged merrymakers didn’t even realize which American holiday they were supposed to be celebrating.
And any basic history about the wars that Americans fought and died in? Forget about it.
“You know, I thought it was Veteran’s Day,” one bright-red-bikini-clad young woman obtusely remarked in the video.
And the meaning behind the holiday? These kids had no clue.
“Memorial Day is…it’s America’s birthday,” one young man confidently told Fox producer Johnny Belisario.
“Um, that’s a good question,” another young woman said, before blaming her non-response on “an edible” she’d taken before arriving on the Los Angeles beach.
Who did Americans fight during the Revolutionary War? Not a concern to these beach-goers – whose responses included France and “ourselves.”
“I mean, if you probably give me a couple of hints, I’d probably know,” one shirtless man suggested, to which Belisario offered: “King and queen.”
But even that wasn’t enough to get the wheels turning.
“Oh man, you’ve got me bro,” the young man said.
His ignorance apparently didn’t stop there.
“What were they fighting over in the Civil War?” Belisario asked.
“Was it something that was very popular around that time? Is it still around in this time?” the partier said, then hemmed and hawed before gobsmackingly guessing: “Dinosaurs.”
“I’m gonna go with taxes,” another young man replied.
The answers didn’t improve when the beach-goers were asked who Americans fought in World War II.
“Albania,” one woman said.
“Russia,” another responded.
“Vietnam,” one man said – but not before the bikini-clad woman on his arm warned him: “Your dad would be so mad if you didn’t know this.”
Who bombed Pearl Harbor? According the respondents, Americans did.
When asked who won the Cold War, the answers ranged from Russia to New York.
One young man even insisted that war got its name because “it was snowing.”
“I’ve played games called ‘The Cold War’ so that I know,” he remarked – and then said “the New Jersey bomber” was behind the War on Terror.
Outraged Americans flooded the viral video’s comment section.
“There is no excuse for these young people to be this stupid,” one person opined.
Another suggested that passing a US civics test should be required for Americans to be able to vote.
“If these kids are the future, we’re in big trouble,” a third person wrote.
