What is up with that title? I've read it three times and I still don't understand it
Judge Uses D&D’s Failure To Make Him Worship Satan, To ~~School~~ Teach Florida ~~On~~ About Social Media Moral Panics.
I think that's what they're trying to say
Guessing they tried to use the more colloquial "to school on," but accidentally created a garden path sentence.
Those were my edits, they didn't use both
Yep, caught that right after I posted and made an edit.
Thank you
It's like all the words are there, they're just assembled in the wrong order
Like on a Ouija board?
That title is definitely difficult to understand lol
The Judge used the fact that he played D&D in the 80s when it was 'well known' that D&D would make you a satanist- which is obviously ridiculous- to refute that it's 'well known' that kids are addicted to social media today.
Well as a matter of fact, I played D&Ds in the 80s and I was a satanist ever since. Can’t imagine my life without it.
Thanks for the response
Oh thank god, I thought I was too high to function for a minute there.
It took me more than that, but I finally decoded it: change ‘school’ to ‘educate’ to make it parse more easily.

Thank you
