I'm aware of at least one MAGA person with a kid who is like 10 and can't read.

with a kid who is like 10 and can’t read.

And is exposed to all the garbage and domestic violence.

Teachers' classes are, sadly, full of such kids, there are many first-hand accounts out there over the past few years. It precedes COVID, but the pandemic definitely exacerbated it.

This is not nearly a MAGA-specific issue.

This is devastating to me, as an 8yo I was already reading medical textbooks. I can't imagine what it would be like to not have such foundational knowledge, but if I were to assume then it must be a rather dull and boring lifestyle, perhaps even dangerous whenever there's warning signs that don't use symbols.
