“Idiot trap” content, like, anything that circulates around exploiting people not understanding what “dihydrogen monoxide” or “arabic numerals” are, I think that’s kind of a weak-ass form of humor.

OH HO HO YOU ABSOLUTE FOOL, YOU DID NOT KNOW THAT DI-HYDROGEN MONOXIDE IS ACTUALLY NOTHING MORE THAN SIMPLE H20, OR EVERYDAY WATER!

I thought that kind of thing was very funny when I was a teenager.

There is a caveat, though, that people who immediately overreact to the idea of kids being taught “arabic numerals” are definitely showing off Oops, All Racism! - although the kind of reactionary conservative voices that tend to fall for this are also exactly the kind of folk for whom being accidentally racist is a feature, not a bug.
