Comment on I would like to meet him, he's probably nice
PancakesCantKillMe@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoI thought so. Too many people use it as a perjorative when it really is merely an absence of knowledge. Not a bad thing itself, but something to “cure” for sure. Thanks for the post!

I try not to judge ignorance as a moral failing, at least not of the ignorant person.

I am the same, but it can be problematic. I was at a wedding recently and drunkenly stumbled into a group of (white) people having a conversation about gun rights and how if they killed someone in self defense and there was a single person of color (not the word they used) on the jury they would be found guilty of murder.
I innocently assumed they were normal folks who were just a bit confused and began trying to enlighten them. It was not received well.

Yeah I mean ignorant people can still be idiots.
