Please understand that the issue here isn't these people. It's schools.
Our current school system is very much predicated on shaming people for not knowing already. Our testing sucks and exasperates this issue, so it's no surprise a lotta folks just don't feel like they could learn on their own at all.
Knowledge at school is pounded into everyone against their will, and while that is necessary to some extent, it is currently also the only way of teaching most people ever see.
