I got fucking whiplash from this lmao
Stupid people don't know how stupid they are. They reject the very notion. It's how one stays stupid in a world with all the world's knowledge at our fingertips.
Turns out access to knowledge was not a threat to the leaders in history. The very idea they were concerns may be oversold.
It's easy to assume that everyone that disagrees with us is stupid, but I can assure you that's very much not true.
I've seen otherwise very intelligent people lost down the rabbit hole of right-wing fuckbaggery. I think it's often just a slow burn from social media. I saw a video earlier today about an ancient tool for spear throwing, and was immediately afterwards presented with a video about how the new Dragon Age game is ruined by DEI...
And the saddest thing is, most people on the extremes have started at the same place: An unhappiness with their own life and a search for a solution. They've just ended up at vastly different positions, in that the right has chosen to blame the nebulous "others" below them, while the left has chosen to blame the "others" above them. And punching down is always an ugly look.
