I don't know. Ignorant is an interesting one because I feel that I was ignorant growing up. We didn't have access to information like people do today. The internet didn't exist. If you had a question, you didn't get an answer because books were expensive and the internet didn't exist.
I feel access to some pretty basic information growing up could have been absolutely life changing.
But I hear what you're saying. It's almost like a deliberate ignorant attitude, rather than lack of access to facts.
