[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In what world can college graduates with a C average NOT get a job. OP what evidence to you have to support your claim?[/quote]

But, more important, why does the OP think a college student has to stay in the same program? That’s why I think the OP is part of a non-U.S. propaganda effort. Many bachelor’s degree programs in Europe do lock students onto a particular track. U.S. schools are famous for not doing that.

I think another red flag is the use of the term “menial jobs.” That’s perfectly good English, but it’s the kind of phrase that would show up in an RT editorial, not a phrase that angry American parents or students would be likely to use.

Maybe some AI program or poorly paid live-human homework helper uses triggers like the original post to get us to generate language and ideas that could go into an AI system, or into a canned term paper database.

Another possibility is that a company that puts ads on DCUM hires freelancers to start fights here to increase time on site and feed the ads more hits.

So, it’s possible that the fight-starting posts are apolitical in nature.

But they simply are weird and artificial. They aren’t just examples of people like me putting off doing the dishes by posting random thoughts online.

Um... maybe have a drink and relax.  This is some incredibly weird overthinking.   :roll:

I’m a different poster, but I’ve definitely noticed the quantity of non-specific sh-t stirring posts (e.g. some flavor of “liberal arts degrees suck”) has gone up.  These posts seem designed solely to generate argument and engagement.   The OP never returns to comment or ask questions.  I think Jeff may be paying cheap labor in the Philippines or somewhere to post in order to generate engagement.  [/quote]
