I feel like it's mostly americans on here, as they tend to be very emotional. My post had absolutely 0 emotional charge, so anyone to be "triggered" by it, must be carrying around a lot of trauma. "Ready to learn", I regularly speak with actual experts in the field, this is an anonymous internet forum for open discussion, you aren't doing anything groundbreaking here, most of the posts here are absolutely pointless drivel. You seem very fragily and have a massive ego, to even imply that your perspective by default is somehow valuable, when you can't even state your opinions related to this post.

And you still haven't pointed out "false claims", you could do that in maybe 2 minutes if you actually knew what you were talking about, it's not that difficult. I don't need help, it just seems you are very limited in your intellectual capability, if you struggle this much with casual discussions.

There really isn't a "scientific consensus" about either of these conditions, there's no conclusion on what causes either of them, except that both are heritable and there's a genetic component. I've discussed this with a professor of forensic psychiatry who works in a psychiatric prison, surely you could make a TL:DR summary of your stance, if you claim to have the expertise.

Lmao, I have read some real papers. I didn't use AI for this text. What's the fundamental misunderstanding? If you know so well, you should be able to explain it easily. So far you've left 2 useless comments, that are rude and offer no value to this discussion.

The grading used in Finland for basic education is a scale from 4-10, 4 is F, 10 is A.

Every 3 years there are standardised tests, to measure the skill and knowledge of students, I've also participated in these a few times when I was in school. When I was in school, having the average grade of 8, would now be a 10. When I finished school my grades were 8.2, so now I would have a 10.2, based on the standardised testing scores. This change has happened in roughly 20 years. For some reason, when students have become less capable, the solution has been to reduce the requirements for a certain grade. This difference is by the way even bigger when you go back 30 years.

There are also studies that indicate finnish IQs have dropped by 10-15 points since the 90s. I read about these studies over 10 years ago, and even back then the drop was around 10 points.

I think there is a link between intellect and physical development. I know for a fact, that teenagers are less developed physically now than 20, 30 or 40 years ago. This also affects their emotional capability, to actually feel emotions. I think that in general people are weaker, physically and figuratively thinner skinned. There are probably multiple factors that contribute to why this is, but it's all speculation so not really worthwhile to voice.
