      I’m sure there are at least one or two who do, so I think you mean you don’t like a pedant and feel like most people agree with you.

      I like to read the correct spelling.
      It explains stuff better and makes positive connections to other things I have learnt in the past.

      When enough people stop caring about the details, for long enough, the results of science shall degrade into superstition, as the underlying science will be lost. And so the cycle revolves.

        This.

        It’s called learning, and no one should ever stop doing so until their last breath. Anyone who tells you otherwise is selling something — which, could very well be your personal liberty.

        Don’t stop learning. Always start teaching. 🙇🏽‍♂️

      Depends entirely on who and what they’re being pedantic toward. Some people deserve it.

      Even fewer appreciate an anti-academic gatekeeper, I’m guessing, but thanks for playing.
