I’m not sure why you’re crying, but you’re incorrect.
It is surprising to many people outside of the Deaf Community, but Deaf people can often hear. The Deaf are considered deaf once they have passed a certain decibel (dB) hearing loss. Many people who are profoundly deaf can still hear planes, dogs barking, etc. Hearing a sound does not mean that Deaf people can understand speech. A person with a significant hearing loss generally has difficulty or inability to hear speech even when aided.
You’ve got multiple sources now. It’s good to question things, but you might want to start by questioning the things that you’ve previously learned when encountering new information.
Deaf people can’t hear. That’s what it means to be deaf 😭

As well, people with cochlear implants are (generally?) also Deaf, but with the implant, they can hear.
Do you have a link to a more reputable site? Gate communications is an American thing.
Just look it up.
It’s like being blind: a lot of blind people can still see but not well.
Or using a wheelchair, a lot of people in wheelchairs can still stand short periods or walk short distances, but have a very short limit.
ETC
Society oversimplifies these things to be binary, but in reality they are a spectrum.
deafness, partial or total inability to hear. (Britannica)
Are Americans intrinsically wrong about Everything? Like, I get most things, but surely one of us has had a correct thought before
A lot of misinformation comes out of the USA.
This seems like, a really weird thing for the US Government to lie about.
Often the USA gets the spelling and meaning of words wrong. In restaurants in the USA entrees are main meals and not entrees.

How come you can say someone’s partially deaf when deafness already covers people who can partially hear? Isn’t that redundant?
Yes, it is redundant. The things people can say are not always completely medically accurate.
That’s not true, you can be legally deaf and still be able to hear (a bit), just like you can be legally blind and still be able to see (a bit)
Cochlear implants do exist, you know
