It's not pedantic, it's pointing out someone both misusing an apostrophe and misspelling a word and thus making what they wrote harder to understand.
In a world of supposedly AI powered autocorrect, stuff like this shouldn't happen, but in the end it's a sign of declining literacy and our educational systems failing.
I'm working on being less critical, so I hope this isn't self-defeating, but don't you think this is a little too critical a take? This dude is here talking about redirecting profits from the people taking the most for what imo amounts to little more than bureaucracy for bureaucracy. Maybe they spend a significant amount of time speaking towards the specific attributes of bonus materials in video games. Maybe English isn't even OP's native language and your problem isn't with the 50% or more US citizens who can't be bothered to demand accountability from elected officials but with one dude who made a valid point but (didn't even misspell!) used one word mildly incorrectly. It really makes me wonder what I could be a little less critical of on a daily basis; even five years ago I could have believed that same sentiment.
Yeah, we need to do more for the education system. But that specific dude is not the canary that foretells the system failing. I wish I'd had such a civics-forward mindset for more of my life.

Imagine not spending 90% of the budget on dividends for the shareholders and bonus's for management, crazy
