    The Universal Laws of Human Stupidity

    in General Discussion

    I think that most of the people who have been featured here shared the same propensity for being stupid because they all believed the same crap that got them dead.


    Officially it's called the Dunning-Kruger effect and it appears to be widespread.


    The following article (which I believe is supposed to be satire, but really isn't) outlines the 5 universal laws of human stupidity, all of which we have seen demonstrated by these utterly stupid people.

    We underestimate the stupid, and we do so at our own peril.

    The stupid, in comparison, are paragons of consistency, acting at all times with unyielding idiocy.

    How many people do you know who qualify? I know a couple. I'm surprised they've survived adulthood to honest. One of them being my former brother in law, a man so stupid I'm stunned to know he still breathes.

    The scale of the problem facing us should now be obvious. When we have around half the country unable to understand or comprehend basic facts and concepts, we’re fucked.


    But wait, there’s more. We also have grown and raised a large population of morally bankrupt grifters, liars, frauds, and cheats who found they can make bank, steal power, and pervert democracy for their own gain. They push the stupid into counterproductive positions that benefit them to the detriment of society and the common good.


    There’s also the social media fucktards who profit from allowing misinformation and hate to reproduce and spread geometrically because it’s extremely profitable because it attracts users like a magnet.


    And the cherry on this parfait of crap is that hostile foreign governments exploit every possible weakness to drive us into internal conflicts, chaos, paralysis, and distraction from all the other issues that threaten us.


    We’ve let ignorance, stupidity, greed, and the pursuit of power turn this country into a pile of crap that doesn’t have an optimistic future.


    No idea how to fix it.

    @Deanna Crichley So much what you said. We cannot just throw up our hands.


    But I’d ague those who know better but still throw up their hands and do nothing are as stupid as those we have to counter and defeat. Inaction is almost as bad as action the wrong way.

    @Deanna Crichley Yes, it should horrify, and would if more were informed. But it doesn't, and they aren't. The adage see no evil, hear no evil comes to mind.

    The Five Universal Laws of Human Stupidity
    We underestimate the stupid, and we do so at our own peril.

    Quote from Cippola's "Five Laws" -


    "We can do nothing about the stupid. The difference between societies that collapse under the weight of their stupid citizens and those who transcend them are the makeup of the non-stupid. Those progressing in spite of their stupid possess a high proportion of people acting intelligently, those who counterbalance the stupid’s losses by bringing about gains for themselves and their fellows.

    Declining societies have the same percentage of stupid people as successful ones. But they also have high percentages of helpless people and, Cipolla writes, “an alarming proliferation of the bandits with overtones of stupidity.”

    “Such change in the composition of the non-stupid population inevitably strengthens the destructive power of the [stupid] fraction and makes decline a certainty,” Cipolla concludes. “And the country goes to Hell.”

    Perhaps Universal laws of stupidity are revealed in these TODAY SHOW interviews.

    It's somewhat obvious who the stupid are...or who promotes stupidity. The Neocons, Q, fox news Trump etc.


    “The Daily Show” quizzed foreigners about gun violence in their home countries to figure out how to deal with “America’s door problem.”
    The comedy program went to New York’s Times Square to chat with tourists in the wake of multiple mass shootings, including a massacre at an elementary school, that has placed renewed pressure on lawmakers for gun control. Many elected Republicans, such as Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), have claimed that the issue comes down to too many or too few doors in schools. HuffPo

    Yup, laughter for me is important and necessary for keeping my sanity in check. In my rl, it's very true that funny portayal of responses to stupid mindsets is something that brings me joy. Perhaps that's the draw to SAV for so many. For me, it allows for a release of overwhelming frustration at the senseless willful ignorance surrounding us. I have a special affinity for schools and everything within their walls. Doors are not the problem and single guarded entries is not a feasible solution. Those that proclaim such nonsense and those who suck up and hold dear these stupid ideas as though they're real answers are freaking idiotic fools. Thanks for the post.

    Does this lead us to consider that the notion stated in the 'Declaration of Independence" is false and hypocritical?


    We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

    These are disingenuous noble-sounding words, perhaps designed to lay a misleading foundation. These words were written by White men, no doubt all xtians, who were slaveholders, slave traders, and squatting on lands recently being stolen from the indigenous. Premeditated plans to expand that land base by continuing their genocidal practices existed. Through the general consensus of what came to be known as Manifest Destiny did the dispossession of self, lands, and liberty of the indigenous become national policy and practice. These practices were stupid and beyond stupid inflicting harm and legitimizing "Crimes against humanity"


    In those times and previously, debates took place that usually concluded that non-whites were not human, but subhuman and so they were treated as such by the colonists/Americans. As well, they were xtians who through their arrogance and bigotry, whose proclamations from atop their pedestal of holier than thou self-righteousness, put non-believers in lower social strata. Among xtians existed also interdenominational prejudices.


    From the earliest arrival of Europeans on America’s shores, religion has often been a cudgel, used to discriminate, suppress and even kill the foreign, the “heretic” and the “unbeliever”—including the “heathen” natives already here. Moreover, while it is true that the vast majority of early-generation Americans were Christian, the pitched battles between various Protestant sects and, more explosively, between Protestants and Catholics, present an unavoidable contradiction to the widely held notion that America is a “Christian nation.” Smithsonian
    In newly independent America, there was a crazy quilt of state laws regarding religion. In Massachusetts, only Christians were allowed to hold public office, and Catholics were allowed to do so only after renouncing papal authority. In 1777, New York State’s constitution banned Catholics from public office (and would do so until 1806). In Maryland, Catholics had full civil rights, but Jews did not. Delaware required an oath affirming belief in the Trinity. Several states, including Massachusetts and South Carolina, had official, state-supported churches. Smithsonian

    Again, addressing the topic of equality, it is simply not true. Individual Humans have aptitudes and talents that are unequal and not universal across humanity.

    Thanks for sharing your truth-telling messages with us all. The destruction and barbaric controls reeked across this land belonging to the Indigenous by those who proclaim to hold such a false sense of moral superiority is a bitter pill to swallow, but necessary to hear and bear witness to. The hypocrisy is as astounding as it is apparent. And disgustingly disturbing, even in light of crystal clear in your face facts, such arrogant tactics continue in stride at this very moment in time. Ugh.
