People only struggle because of a self-centered view that everything is supposed to be for them, and things that aren't for them are a weird exception. A reasonable person will realize that the fact that they don't understand any of what it's talking about means they're not the target audience, and move on (or poke around out of curiosity).

It's self-centered to want to communicate well?

It's just basic communications skills, and honestly decency, to describe what a thing is and who it's for.

Maybe someone who isn't the target audience still wants to learn about the thing? Which this site provides no way of doing. That's the problem. Why choose to be inaccessible like that, when it's so easy to add a couple of works and links?

You mean like by following links that are supplied? Because that's my complaint: there are no links.

What is the main country where dying pubs is such a big subject?

For f**ks sake I am not from UK yet it is easy to understand what it is all about from context and language. And I wasn't even aware of that tax change.

Pure US arrogance.

How should I know? That's the point. It might as easily be Ireland for all I know.

I'm happy you're so smart. Not all of us are so lucky, I guess.

Who said anything about being from the US? You know there are people from a lot of other countries who speak English too? If your concern is arrogance, it seems like it's your own that perhaps needs to be dialed back a little.
