Embarrassing someone for not knowing something is stupid.
It's a very good motivator for critical thinking though.
We know that, through much study, it really isn’t. And the negatives outweigh the positives especially compared to other methods. It’s a trauma response more than anything at that point and if it does work they probably just used those skills to realize what an asshole the shamer was/is.
Good lord, of this is your definition of trauma, you've had an incredible life
A grape doesn't have weight because a banana is heavier
A mouse can not move because a race car moves faster
Covid can not make you sick because ebola makes you sicker

I’m not here to play olympics with people who struggle to empathize with others. I’m sorry awful things have happened to you, that doesn’t give you any right to invalidate someone else’s pain.
My god guys it was terrible, my Dad sent me to the store for a bucket of steam, and the cashier laughed at me.
How was I supposed to know steam didn't come in pre-packaged buckets? Nobody ever explained the particulars of steam packaging!
Literally nothing worse could ever happen to me. Now I'll be in therapy for years.
Ok.
