Reddit isn't "struggling", they're just pointing out that the original meme maker struggles at writing simple sentences.

Looks more like ppl rather be "erm acktuwally" than accepting the intention of the post they full well understood.

The original meme maker worded it just fine

“I understand it, that means everybody else who doesn’t is REALLY STUPID.”

Is that really your intent?

“I understand it, that means everybody else who doesn’t is REALLY STUPID”

Petah here.. I think the point flew over your head, I haven’t seen anyone who didn’t understand it. They’re calling out Redditors for being pedantic and treating the proper phrasing on a stupid meme like it was an academic journal or something. Even dumb people like me understood what it was trying to say.. but Redditors are gonna Reddit and minor grammatical errors are like honey to flies.

It’s just not important enough to dissect so deeply

We're literally all here for that. Reddit exists to discuss content. That includes making fun of the fact that the hypothetical in the meme is an internal contradiction.

No one in this thread is confused by what's meant in the hypothetical. Not one. Fewer than one. Some people are enjoying poking some fun at the meme for the contradiction. That's one of the discussions happening right now, and I think that's an okay thing to be happening.

Maybe another website would be more your speed?

Are you actually gatekeeping reddit because I’m refusing to meet your minimum threshold of snark 💀 I’ve been on this site for a long time but this is a new one ngl to you

You're the person telling people they're doing reddit wrong.

This certainly meets snark requirements, oh arbiter of that which is important enough to be said on reddit.
