      1) things people just explain 2) things that make people mad and haughty when asked to explain, e.g. “read a 1st year textbook”

      I think the difference is not just that 2) are more basic than 1), but that 2) is a sign that it’s something core to an imaginary world

      being asked to explain (2) is like having to tell someone the rules of the game, breaking the flow

      it makes people REALLY mad when it’s about their main imaginary game that they use to define their self-worth

          When people get mad and say “jeez it’s so basic read a first-year textbook” I suggest doing exactly that

          You can learn hilarious, amazing things that are not at all what the cranky person OR the textbook author hoped you would learn

          likewise I still say "it's not my job to educate you" is legit when it's simply the fact rather than a status move but my ethical rule is always convey assumption of good faith f try to add "but [pointers in more helpful directions]" if I do *have* to say it

          snobbery about having to teach 101s always was a pretty reliable indicator of anxious mediocrity in actual-academia too

          nitpick I feel like this analysis is just as good without ascribing a derogotary "imaginary" status, gamehood already implies constructedness, & imo there are many humanities courses 🐕😙 with real observations & distinctions to make & only mere spicings of socjust &c inculcation

          not indented as derogatory, everything important is imaginary basically
