I am the only one with media literacy

    I am the only one with media literacy

    It’s come to my attention that people may have “takes” on a show I like. And to my professional dissatisfaction (as in, I am professionally, perpetually dissatisfied), I can’t help but be agog at your slack-jawed stupidity. Do you not think before you post? Are you incapable of looking up from your phones to comprehend what’s happening on screen? This simply cannot stand anymore, and so I must make one. A stand, I mean.
    
    You, yes, YOU. You lack media literacy. It’s endemic to our TikTok brainrot culture, sure, but you need to step up and accept your part in it. That take you think you have? Don’t even bother engaging in good faith with it. It’s just wrong, you’re wrong for having it. Have you tried reading a book? “B-O-O-K,” BOOK. Or if not that, perhaps you could watch something other than your typical shonen to help you with that mold clogging up your cognitive capabilities. Try something that makes you think next time. Like Chainsaw Man.
    
    I might hear you say “oh, but we should at least talk things out and have good-natured debate”, but have you considered that you’re dumb? Why should I lower myself to your level when I can call you dumb? But I’m not actually calling you dumb, see, don’t get mad. I’m calling you media illiterate. That makes me sound smart. Me smart, you dumb. Get it, caveman?
    
    So don’t even bother posting any of your takes, your shipping ideas, your critiques, your fan remakes. I, and everyone who agrees with me, have media literacy. So go educate yourself on some culture before you deign to stink up my Hazbin Hotel subreddit.
