I believe either You're or you are would have been appropriate here.

I think it is funny that you speak of ignorance but are ignorant of the fact that pointing someones errors out in front of many other people, and doing so in such a mannor as to be making fun of them is actually quite Rude. It is as socially unacceptable as improper spelling and grammer, if not more so.

End of rant.
I apologize for my typo. I should have proofed my post.

I did not accuse Dan of being ignorant. That comment was made about students at large. I did accuse Dan of addressing adults in a juvenile manner. That stands. As I used to tell my younger trainees, "you are not kids in this arena, you are umpires."

Speaking out about the condition of today's affairs is neither rude, nor "making fun." It is simply commentary.
