People who unironically get mad at the term "Media Literacy" are usually the very same people who actually lack it.
I swear, all I see is people getting SO riled up when you actually call them out on their nonsense in online discussions.
>Waahh, nobody can take criticism anymore!
>Waah, if I don't like it (you are NOT allowed to be indifferent to games in this day and age) it MUST be garbage!
>Waaahh, MY perception of this and that is the ONLY correct way and therefore, this thing sucks!
But try calling them out on their actual lack of media literacy, and these people will IMPLODE!
What's with the visceral reaction to just… taking an L?
It's not that deep, brother. It's fine! You were wrong about something, and that's okay. People can simply give you the correct answer, and you can learn. Be better.
But no!
Apparently, the second someone feels like their ego is threatened, they scream "buzzword!!" at you like it somehow heals their very obvious lack of comprehension skills or retention skills.
I found that the more people vehemently fight against the term "media literacy", the more media illiterate they are.
It's almost as if they feel insecure for getting called out, instead of, you know… Go read? Fix your ignorance? And be wiser.
You want to enjoy something superficially? Sure. Go on. Just don't have a strong opinion on these things, or engage in any deeper discussions.
I've found that people who do not show a visceral reaction to comprehension call-outs are USUALLY more willing to learn and have enough humility to actually accept the fact that they, too, may miss a piece or misread something, or forgot something. And that's normal, and completely fine!
Sorry if some parts seem hard to understand, English is not my first language.
TLDR; If you get mad at the term media literacy, you are, in fact, media illiterate and unwilling to become better.
