Most CHUDs can read just fine

Statistically, I'm not sure if that's true unless your standard for "read just fine" is baseline literacy. Granted, that's also true of many Dems, though it's shrinking as they increasingly lose all of their base that isn't educated white people.

Honestly I'm pretty sure a double digit percentage of the adults in america literally cannot read even at what I would consider "baseline literacy." Like I'd be doing customer service and basically half of everybody needed to be walked through incredibly simple processes, not only simple but with the instructions on the phone screen in front of them, and their reaction to this information being in front of them was basically like a Westworld android going "huh that dont look like anything to me!"

I mean, no they can't. Only 11% of western adults can even read books written for adults.
