You should write a book! Everything in the universe is energy based. Most people do not understand that. So when you address the “stupidity rules”, you can prove them scientifically.

Is that an insult? I'm having a problem reading your energy.

One of the most wrong and misleading ideas of our time is the belief that everyone else out there is stupid.

I don’t know how many times I’ve heard the saying, in one form or another, that there are just so many stupid people in the world.

Most people making this statement either don’t interact with regular people or refuse, through their elitist perspective, to pay attention to the common wisdom of regular people.

The “everyone else is stupid” line propagates one of the founding strategies of progressivism.

And it is, in itself, stupid.

I agree. Leftism is an elitist belief system. They think that if regular people let the elitists run their lives for them, they would be so much better off. Of course central planning requires everyone to obey the plan and the planners will need to eliminate those who do not comply. In the end the regular people end up being sheep to be sheared for the benefit of the elitists. The elitists are stupid because they have chosen a path where if everything was right in the world they would meet an unnatural death at the hands of those they oppressed. Those who carry the water for the elitists are either evil or stupid.
