Things have gotten better and progress has been made from times past, it just seems worse now because we have more access to information. We've come far, and have further to go!

Yeah, people who learn and understand language are the worst

You cant say "the worst" when talking about an uncountable group, you have to say "the least good" because I prefer that and it makes me sound smart by correcting you. Apparently that is sufficient for it to be understanding language and for you to be wrong.

Most people thank me for the little correction and just go about their day without being a total asshole.

Really most people thank you for being an annoying pedant who isnt even correct?

No, most people aren't self-important assholes like you who lie for attention.
