The World's Most Ignorant Countries - GoFuckYourself.com

Smack dat · 12-17-2016, 04:06 PM

The supposedly most ignorant places in the world have been named based on a survey of people's knowledge about their own country.

The 2016 Index of Ignorance, produced by Ipsos MORI, includes information from 27,250 interviews of people aged 16 to 64 carried out between September and November.

The survey took in populations from 40 countries, with between 500 and 1,000 people surveyed in each.

The USA, the richest country in the world, ranked as one of the most ignorant countries, below many less developed countries.

However, Malaysia, which is not considered fully developed, was in the top 10 least ignorant countries.

The list, from most to least ignorant, is as follows:

India

China

Taiwan

South Africa

USA

Brazil

Thailand

Singapore

Turkey

Indonesia

Mexico

Canada

Montenegro

Russia

Serbia

Philippines

Hong Kong

Israel

Denmark

Argentina

France

Vietnam

Peru

Spain

Chile

Hungary

Japan

Belgium

Poland

Colombia

Sweden

Norway

Italy

Germany

Australia

Malaysia

Czech Republic

South Korea

United Kingdom

I'm a bit surprised that we in the UK did so well, I can only guess they didn't ask "Londoners".

pimpmaster9000 · 12-17-2016, 06:03 PM

dillfly2000 · 12-17-2016, 06:07 PM

There are some countries on the list that maybe the majority are ignorant but the small elite are the ones who run everything.

Even more - just the right difficulty level questions. And even if you are sincere you can not possibly choose exactly similar difficulty level questions for each country.
Polls like that is pure entertainment. Similar to the kind of crappy articles of "top 10 things you should do on a date" etc.

Do they just manufacture this hubris for publicity?

Maybe, they dropped the *dumb* bomb in 2016?

Look at the change over one year LMAO.

These things do not change that radically in 12 months. They are full of shit.

Of course, if you change the questions year over year you will get different results.

These people are just gaming the public with subjective survey results.

Tell them a stupid American called them out

not exactly easy to measure that...
