because if one bad teacher ruined your entire education, you’re the idiot. likely a vastly emotionally immature one at that.
everyone has bad teachers dude. we also have good ones, and mediocre ones. smart and mature human beings… let it go. miserable stupid ones sit there and stew and are still angry 20 years later about that one embarrass moment… and also blame all their current ‘failures’ on it. ‘oh if only mr handface had not asked me that question in 10th grade English 20 years ago, i’d be a successful music producer!’ yeah… right.
but this is peak american entitlement. ‘one teacher was mean to me once and i hate school forever and ever’ like… i mean that’s who the american president is… so yeah peak american. we’re a culture of entitled whiny cunts who appreciate nothing an whine about everything and are so egotistical we can’t admit that maybe we were a bad student.
ironically… the teachers i liked best were the ones everyone else HATED. why… because they actaully wanted students to learn. The popular teachers people liked were the ‘fun’ ones who gave everyone As and never actually taught you anything… almost like children want their education to be junk food because it tastes better than broccoli.
the reason our education system is so awful is our expectations of children are so low. Americans have bought into this narrative that children are ultra fragile and well that’s what we have made them. it’s not the teacher’s job to raise children, it’s the parents. the teachers job is to teach them.
other countries don’t treat their children this way, and shocker, their children are far more resilient and self-reliant. we teach our children to be helpless, and we end up with helpless adults who never mature. maturity is learning from your mistakes, not feeling forever defined by them.
the original comment was a dumbass being a dumbass and being butt-hurt over his own stupidity. it’s all bullshit anyway, nobody who actually reads don Quixote reads it in two days. it’s a 1000 page dense novel. maybe you OP read Harry Potter 5, which is also 1000 pages, but it is so shallow you can read the whole thing in like 3-5 hours.
i call it ‘logic’ and ‘reality’. And all well-documented and observable things in the world.
But it’s ok, that’s why I liked the teachers people HATED. Because those teachers… focused on reality, hard work, and actually learing stuff. Not making people feel good about themselves.
And it’s true, I notice people who are entirely focused only on feeling good, seem to think I am a very hostile and angry person. And peopel who are more concerned about things other than just their own personal pleasure, don’t interpret me that way.
Almost as if folks are terrified of reality because it might make them feel bad about themselves…

You, uh, hold a lot of anger and hatred for someone trying to advise others how to “get over it”.
you call it ‘anger and hatred’
