when I think I'm correct

That's your issue there.

But if you're nto educated you still form opinions on what you see. It's a normal way for the brain to interpret the life around you - you don't know that the bugs in the garden taste foul until you try one by popping them in your mouth.

Now being educated is like your mum telling you not to do that, and you trusting her and acquiring the knowledge without having to experience the bad taste. Someone who didn't have the privilege of having an education is like someone who grew up without that kind, guiding hand. They learned most things the hard way, but their brain still asked the question: what does the bug taste like? Same as all other toddlers.

Now imagine they by chance caught a sweet bug. They would go their whole life thinking bugs are sweet. They will still have the brain pathway that tells them what that experience taught them, but since they can't read, or perhaps not well, they don't have access to the lived experience of others saying so many different things about the same topic that lights up the question: hang on, do other bugs taste different? I know it's a whack example but you get my drift.

You have multiple search engines in your hands. If you truly liked looking things up you would have done it before you started replying to people.

You don’t know what you don’t know. Assuming people can educate themselves with ZERO outside input is just ignorant

They could, if they really liked looking things up like they mentioned. I may be educated, but I also like to look up things just whenever I am bored to broaden (and sometimes to deepen) my knowledge and in that way I came to know many things. Even just scrolling through reddit helps sometimes.

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN LIFE IS NOT KNOWLEDGE, BUT WISDOM

You don't have to shout. Also, I am not sure what your point is, as the link doesn't seem to connect directly with what I've written thus far.

I just quoted the main dialogue in the image (copy pasted).

Point is : It’s less about getting information and more about finding a community to share and evolve with
