Ok they were dicky about it, but y'all need to consider the possibilities. Maybe they have undiagnosed dyslexia. Maybe they grew up in poverty and a terrible home life and never had the opportunity to become a reader for pleasure. Maybe lots of possibilities

I think the problem is not preferring manga/comics over regular books, but rather that anon implies, with the whole "not being willing to make a manga or at least a graphic novel", that normal books are lazy inplementations of literature, which is such a dumb and inconcievable POV that we are justifiebly ridiculing them.
