Imagine gatekeeping learning. I suppose the blind are incapable of it, then? Or is taking in information via the fingers somehow more valid than via the ears?

You're extremely limited in the type of learning you can do if you choose not to read. It sounds harsh but the poster is making a salient point. Quality matters and following "I love science" on facebook is not substitute for a proper education (or good book for that matter).
