I mean at this point might as well go ahead and do it, "I was scared for my life, they were many and threatening" still works as an argument right? And what the fuck is the Klan gonna do about it? Retaliate by wearing white in other locations?

This is correct. But if you don't work in the field, it's fine.
You don't have to know how to bottle wine if you're not a wine maker. You don't need to know how to build a dam if you're not an engineer. You don't have to learn everything about the architecture of an OS if you're a user and not a programmer. Let the kids use their devices without knowing obscure shit, just like people let us wear clothes without knowing how to sew. There are things we should all know how to do - changing a light bulb is cheaper if you don't call an electrician every time it needs to be done. But there are things that are so opaque at first sight that they need to be performed by people with specialized knowledge. And it's okay to not have that knowledge if you're not in that field.
Yes, there are 1-2 generations where everyone was learning how computers work. But there were also quite a few generations where everyone was learning how agriculture and farming works - you know, to survive. And I'll be damned if I wanna have my kids birth a cow or install Linux on their PC. Unless for some godforsaken reason they decide that's their job.
