Not surprised.
It's a combination of things:
-bad parenting
-schools teaching useless information instead of life skills
-kids unable to think for themselves without checking their phone/social media
I'm in school systems every day for my job. Ask any kid from 2nd grade to college what they think about a certain issue/problem and they echo what they hear on social media or the news. Ask them what their own opinion is and why and they look at you with a blank stare.
