I reek of caring about the USA.

I am self taught. Never got along with teachers.

So I have blind spots in my self-education.

And you are way too quick to judge.

Proverbs warn about passing judgment before knowing all the facts.

I thought I worked out a good plan and the first time someone corrects me it is with verbal napalm.

Proverbs also talk about listening to fools.

Begone or at least be silent for a decade as you continue thy self education

He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy. Proverbs 29:1

(Your comment “ am self taught. Never got along with teachers.
So I have blind spots in my self-education.”)

Since you like proverbs how about this one...
Proverbs 9-8-10”8 Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.

9 Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.

10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.”

Would you be a scorner or can you accept that even an “unfair judgment” may not be a judgment at all but a challenge to your motives? Verse 10 will help you with your “educational blind spots”!
