I mean even that’s not true. Probably 98% could learn these things. 2% is not zero. In reality though even if a much greater number of volunteer teachers existed, we’d still end up with an even more non-zero number.
I lived in a world of realistic optimism where it was possible that maybe ya know, up to 10% might vote for Donald Trump. Like 35% of eligible voters chose him and most of them still would even after he’s hurt them directly. And I started off “more negative” than you are now. There’s being optimistic and then there’s being mad at the world for not being perfect.

this just seems like negative thinking, wrapped in realism, while I, an idealist, dream of hope.
Some folks cling to hope, some except reality as hopeless.
