From I love Amy
Unfortunately for this girl (and for everyone else) all countries are mostly made up of stupid people.

At least they (boomers, exers, millennials, zoomers… whatever) didn’t vote for… (gasp)… a woman!
Because a woman for president?!! When PIGS fly!!!We’re copying the stupid kids homework
Brexit has entered the chat
Nooooo, God is answering her prayer and making americans even dumber!
We are God’s unwanted children.
I am sorry to disappoint.
We aren’t.
How so?
And there is no god
Could you imagine if there were? What a bastard.
Yeah, I’ll have no truck with such a like.
God here: sorry kid, I distributed stupid people equally around the globe.
Americans on hearing a British accent: “wow, they must be so much more intelligent and cultured than us!”
Britons: “I’d be fine with migrants if they came here to work instead of just stealing all the jobs. Also, I wonder how many Creme Eggs I can fit up my bum”
They arrested their pedo.
You say that like they only had one.
I know this is a technicality but AFAIK neither the former prince Andrew nor Peter Mandelson were arrested for the pedo stuff. They were arrested because they leaked state secrets to a person that happens to be a pedo.
And let him out right after.
Barely, maybe. Definitely not smarter enough
Nah, just remember that half the worlds population is below average intelligence and most of the rest are barely above average.
This is inaccurate; only a minority of people are meaningfully less “intelligent” and it’s rarely those people who are the real problem. The problem isn’t intelligence, but the foolishness of people unable to see past their own biases or think critically.
The problem isn’t intelligence, but the foolishness of people unable to see past their own biases or think critically.
“The problem isn’t stupid people, its dumb people.”
That has little to do with being unintelligent
Being unable to think critically doesn’t mean someone is unintelligent?
The inability to see past their own bias (or at least show the capacity to actually try) isn’t unintelligent?
Being able to do those things, by my own measure, is arguably one of the prerequisites for intellect. Those things and curiosity of course.
I’m telling you, I’ve seen otherwise brilliant people say the dumbest shit. The world is hard to understand in the first place and it’s often too scary to face the facts.
Being scared of facing the truth is something I do not respect or identify as intelligence.
But yes, sure, a person can be both smart and dumb. I actually agree with that. But now we’re talking about selectively intelligent people, and if someone is smart, but explicitly has been dumb about something as important as politics, I still struggle to respect them or think of them as smart overall. I think of them as dumb but with expertise.
EDIT: Or of course: they’re evil.
Nah, even people with the right ideas on politics can have these blind spots. Nobody is immune and when everyone is vulnerable to something, those blind spots add up. It’s what allows divide and conquer strategies to expand beyond those who are more conservative.
Spoiler alert: Most people are dumb.
They aren’t
I do think a strong education system can make a difference.
