literacy crash course…

I love how today literacy isn’t even a thing. No one talks aboit teaching things (in the EU, at least). It’s all about financial literacy, digital literacy, social media literacy, hell, even (and bear with me here) AI literacy. Yes, really. There’s prpbably 800 of these literacies floating around.

Whoever thought of this is an idiot. The word literacy means one thing: the ability to read and write (and understand what you read/wrote). Nothing more, nothing less.

It isn’t just stupid, it’s also malicious. Kids all over the globe are suffering from poor literacy, and instead of fixing the problem you quite literally shift the goalposts.
