Wtf is "recognize shakespeare"?

No one knows who he was let alone what he looked like. Some people suggest that it was even possibly more than one person.

Also his writing more or less sucks. Id rather go fast any day.

This is "Mario is more recognisable than Mickey Mouse" all over again lol

Maybe they should put Shakespeare's remains in an fMRI machine to find out.

I remember when the same was said about millenials except the comparison was between Ronald Mcdonald and Jesus/George Washington.

Y'all in here doing your best to defend the shitty education you got.

Why?

Its not really about education. I am fully aware of who Shakespeare is and how he is commonly depicted.

But a blue hedgehog that also happens to be the mascot of a bit multimedia company is simply way more recognisable.

I bet this guy didn't even learn to recognise 李白 in school.
