Yes well I was never a pretentious college student don’t know how overachieving kids who’ve been rewarded their whole lives for not being able to act their age ever got the idea they’ll be taken more seriously if they use big words and talk about abstract concepts they may not fully understand.

NYT is garbage like The Atlantic and CNN. They are all genocidal propaganda mouthpieces. Boycott

If the students had been ignorant about these topics then these people would be calling all of them dumb and uninformed. There's no winning.
