Pen highlighting the word “illiterate”

My stance on the wuck-fitted ignorant trash known as Tailwind? Well, if you’re unaware go through my back catalog. I’ve got articles galore on how Wathan is a fraud, the claims of Tailwinds merits are fraudulent, and how generally speaking whose who use Failwind by choice tend to be illiterate of the most basic aspects of using HTML and CSS properly.

Recently a spate of articles by others have surfaced and a link to one — that everyone on the xitter thinks is a screencap not a link, thanks Muskie — has caused a lot of the ‘wah wah, is not” clownshoes to ooze out of the woodwork.

The article in question:
https://nuejs.org/blog/tailwind-vs-semantic-css/

Has a lot of flubs, mistakes, and just plain issues that would leave the Tailwind fools with a lot of ammunition.

So I want to talk about the article first.

There Is No Such Thing As “Semantic CSS”
