True, but they also have us over the barrel right now as well. We can’t also ignore looking into the options provided by their mistakes during this time.
They’re not perfect, and do make mistakes.
Stupid is as stupid does. If they insist on continuing down this path, they will have no future except one filled with despair, death, and destruction.
He’s right.
They are evil.
We should be calling it that and ripping the mask away for those to see who still can.
I can tell when people JUST read the headline :)
It can be difficult to tell dumb from evil because the dumb can so easily be deployed by the evil. The evil can even equip them with a few talking points to briefly mask the dumb.
A person who cannot find the problem in “We have to get everyone vaccinated to protect the vaccinated against catching the virus they’ve been vaccinated against from the unvaccinated” well, that person is dumb. Such a person can be easily made to serve the purposes of Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates, who are evil.
Some dumb people are simply ignorant. They just don’t know any better. Can they help it? Maybe. It’s worth putting out the truth in hopes that they can find it. A culture that rewards truth and punishes lies goes a long way on this issue.
Some dumb people just don’t have much horsepower in their mind motor. This was Joe Biden pre-dementia. A strong culture is needed to protect these people from evil, and the culture from these dumb people. Idiocracy was basically a documentary in disguise. That movie gets less farcical with each passing year.
Some dumb people are so beholden to their emotions that they cannot engage their minds in an orderly fashion. Their feelings outpace their thinking. Again, cultural barriers have to protect a society from such dumb people gaining power.
The Left knew what it was doing when it sought to destroy our culture. About every cultural innovation of the last 75 years has had the effect of empowering at least one of these types of dumb people, all in the service of evil.
I’ve noticed something strange in the conservative movement for decades now—the desire to call our enemies “stupid.”
***Yup. And also “misunderstood”. This is plainly incorrect, because they’re smarter than we give them credit for, even smarter than us. They’re also far more evil than we allow ourselves in our minds.
These people are in power and calling the shots, so they can’t be too stupid.
Thank you. This has bothered me for so long. I hated when they called Obama stupid. He was evil, he hated our country, and was an evil genius and seeding every institution from the courts to the military with other America hating communists and globalists. He was actually very smart at accomplishing his goals. Now, Biden may be stupid himself, but those pulling his strings are not, they are evil geniuses as well.
They take advantage of stupid voters.
Amen! Evil is as evil does!
“The leaders of the Leftist movement are not stupid. They are evil, but not stupid.”
However, the vast majority of their followers are stupid, ignorant, or mentally ill. Or any combination thereof.
That’s hard to argue :)
“What makes them “stupid” is their failure to recognize that their ideas will destroy them too in the long run.”
That’s a great point!
That’s some solid wisdom. Thanks

100%

Ding Ding Ding!

Can’t disagree with a word.
