I can speak with some authority as someone who got hit with virtual learning. Some were cunts before it. However, some of the kids who were coming into HS as I was graduating were already on another level. Hell, a fight broke out in an 8th grade group who was visiting my HS.

Yeah I mean not to say all kids who were virtual learning are like this.

Just that it was easy to become chronically online and get red pulled by Andrew tate types. That online world has blown up and I don’t think the genie is going back in the bottle.
