also basic understanding of math, science, language, music, etc is just a nice thing for everyone to possess

Hear, hear!

You know, it also kind of sucks to live among a bunch of ignoramuses that don't know how anything works, who fear and hate people who look and act different, and who fall for the most low-effort lies and propaganda out there.

And yeah, since my experience is that I enjoy and appreciate life more as I learn more about the universe, and I would like others to enjoy existence, it IS a nice thing for everyone to possess!
