"ignorant" isn't always an insult. there can be good or bad (or neither) reasons for someone to not know something

@noyovo there really needs to be nuance with the way we talk about ignorance, and a totally dismantling of placing a specific sort of intelligence up on a pedestal.
having or not having knowledge isn't a moral issue, its often an accessibility issue.
@LovesTha okay? i'm clearly talking about people that do not have everything required to gain access and choose not to.
i'm not really interested in continuing this conversation further if thats your only point to be made. the OP sums up what this post was about specifically, in that "ignorance" is not always a negative signifier. i have zero idea why you felt the need to chime in "but sometimes it is" when clearly we already know that.
@noyovo @glitter nearly everything can nowhere learned with no cash required, other than what western society largely considers normal tools for life.
Those outside those assumptions still have the entire knowledge of mankind more easily than someone born hundreds of years ago, just the difference may be between types of impossible.
@LovesTha Are you white
@LovesTha @noyovo I'm sure they're both immense barriers. With people having to work multiple jobs just to survive, who the hell really has the right amount of time, money, and energy to do it without it being like, your actual focus of effort.
