You’re probably right, but it would be really hard not to go fully ethno-nationalist on that survey, especially as a teenager who might feel like they have less to lose.

Being a smart-assed teen when I was that age, I know I would have done it to the 9s. And probably enjoyed arguing with them every time they try to bring it up, just to fuck with them. These teachers aren't smart, it is one of the lowest IQ professions we have, it isn't that difficult to truly fuck with them.

As a high school student, I had absolutely no knowledge of the truth about WW2, but I still took great pleasure in drawing swastikas on my notebooks purely because it upset adults. They brought me into the office to ask me why, I told them I thought it was funny, they told me it wasn't, I said "Well that's your opinion, and I have mine."
They shook their heads and let me go. The early '00s weren't as pozzed.
