Self-professed misogynist influencer Andrew Tate believes reading is for people with “slow brains,” according to a recent resurfaced clip of him on X. In the video, Tate is seen bragging that his brain is too advanced for reading and that he’d rather be in constant chaos.
“I’m too smart to read. I know you’re sitting there going ‘smart people read’… no. I need action. I need constant chaos in my life to feel content. I need to be driving a supercar and f—ing fighting, f—ing a bunch of hoes and champagne… going crazy.”
21% of the US adults or are children included in that? I’d love to see where you’re getting these stats too.
That’s just for adults, for children the data ranks the States against one another rather than giving an average illiteracy percentage like with adults. Here’s a top tier link on the topic: https://www.thinkimpact.com/literacy-statistics

Interesting how the percentage increases near cities.
It’s all just blue. Terrible color choice to demonstrate any sort of regional differences. It looks like the USA is covered in denim.
