I’m very disappointed in poem_for_your_sprog for almost understanding this point, and then immediately making the same mistake she was calling out
‘I have to sort my books!’ she cried,
With self-indulgent glee;
With senseless,narcissisticpride:
‘I’m just so OCD!’
‘How random, guys!’ I smiled and said,
Then left without a peep -
And washed my hands until they bled,
And cried myself to sleep.
“Y’all need to relearn X” IS education. If you feel denigrated when you’re told to learn something, then I don’t see how it’s possible to educate you without offending you.
Just because it has the word learn in it doesn’t mean it’s educating. It’s purposefully written in an obtuse manner to complain and denigrate, not educate.
