I usually go with explaining a time I was ignorant of something, and then really focus on the "ignorant" part and explain what ignorance is, and how systems intentionally develop ignorance in their subjects, and THEN i hit em with "youre ignorant, get educated"
This should work. “Hey, I’m not trying to call you stupid, but do you ever read books?”
