You're not alone. I made a comment on a VSauce video, praising
  the amazing him and people like him are at educating people in
  ways that schools entirely miss. In my 27 years online, I never
  got 3500 likes on a comment, and hundreds of enthusiastic
  responses from kids as young as 8 and adults of any age

  The responses from the late elementary/middle school kids to my
  comment gave me the most hope for the future. As they are the
  bulk of Vsauce viewership, they of course were most likely to
  respond; it's part of their society.

  They have a LOT MORE YEARS to suffer through school, but they're
  supplementing their *own* educations, despite where they find
  themselves, and I really look forward to what their generation
  comes up with when they get old enough to be in Power and I'm
  white haired. GenZ will quietly change everything for the better
  as they're collectively exposed to non-isolated communities and
  outside of the direct controlling influence of
  family/school/community.

  Youtube may have a lot of crap but the good stuff is there, and
  mixtures of poop and philosophy are absolutely perfect - not as
  a full replacement for school perhaps, but close.
