Question above is pretty blunt but was doing a study for a college course and came across that stat. How is that possible? My high school sucked but I was well equipped even with that sub standard level of education for college. Obviously income is a thing but to think 1 out of 5 American adults is categorized as illiterate is…astounding. Now poor media literacy I get, but not this. Edit: this was from a department of education report from 2022. Just incase people are curious where that comes from. It does also specify as literate in English so maybe not as grim as I thought.
Most rural people hate me and want me to be murdered after I’m publicly humiliated.
I live in a rural area and I am just really tired of having to hate all of my coworkers. They’ll all try to rant at you unless they know you’re lgbt, in which case they’ll never talk to you and report you for everything.
