From my perspective all this says is that you have a very grim view of others intelligence.

The post you're responding to makes no claims about the intelligence of others. The claim that's being made is that the majority of laypersons don't really know how to construct a sonnet or a haiku.

You're conflating that with a claim about intelligence because the true claim was not explicitly stated. One has to read critically, as if analyzing a poem.

    • Yeah I’m not sure why they would bother responding to a child comment without reading the parent but there we are.
