[@JohnnyYeTaecanUktena]

To be honest that is standard for any person. It is also why getting immigration papers to countries is fucking bullshit as the immigrants have to know more about the country than the natives themselves. Like no way in hell any native of the US could pass the test for a green card as the tests are honestly bullshit as they frame it that you have to know as much as a native but in reality you have to know more than beyond what a native knows as i can guarantee that 99.9% of Americans can not pass the test if they took it and that .1% are immigrants that passed

[@scienceofnoises]
