In terms of the human condition, chances are that for just about everything you think is right or true, the exact opposite is almost certainly the case. You could even have a PhD in something and still be stupid. (Or at least cowardly) You might be as smart as hell in whatever you have a PhD in. But beyond that is a different matter. There were even a couple books written on the matter. They are called, "The Book of General Ignorance: Everything You Think You Know Is Wrong."

As an example, you probably think that our system of government is a Democracy. But you would be wrong. Our system of government more closely resembles a Plutocracy. Which is rule by the rich. But to put it more precisely, our system of government is actually a Kakistocracy. Which is rule by the incompetent and corrupt.

Obviously, our government is behind your almost certain stupidity. Probably because the stupid are easier to rule. Or to put it more precisely, easier to abuse. To prove my point, I will show you a meme with a quote of something that was almost certainly said by a former director of the CIA named William Casey. And what he said the CIA does was almost certainly with the help of the NSA, FBI and other such government agencies. As well as with the help of internet forums such as this. Here is the quote.

What, too hard to believe? Well throughout the decades the CIA has been known of experimenting with various methods of achieving the brainwashing of people. (In that, maybe they succeeded) But when it comes to mind control over the population in general, nothing works better than stupidity.

Though there is what I would consider to be a secondary reason for the government to do what it does. It is well known that if there is something that the government wants to keep secret, (that is, you ignorant on the matter) they have to keep it secret from the American public. Now if the government wants to keep the people of other countries stupid, which they almost certainly want to do, they also have to keep things secret from the American public. In that, I have some words of wisdom for you by George Bernard Shaw. He may have not been perfect. But the quote by him that I will show you is true enough. Here it is. Heed them well.

Now, the question becomes how offended you are by your almost certain stupidity. Seeing how you have never known anything different, I am guessing that you aren't offended at all. In that, there was an author named Aldous Huxley who had some very keen observations on the matter. Here they are.

Here are the other memes of statements made by Aldous Huxley.

OP, heal thyself.
 
You don't get civilization without brainwashing.
 
You don't get civilization without brainwashing.

Sure you do. It may not have been done here. But no doubt it can be done. For example, there are probably trillions of advanced extraterrestrial civilizations throughout the observable universe that are FAR older than humanity that have done so.

I think this is false...and that's true.

Welcome to the board...
 
The OP may be confusing intelligence with knowledge. In general, everyone is as knowledgeable as everyone else. They just know different things.

Some people do have better brains than others. They are more intelligent. So what? Some people are stronger than others, or can run faster too.

Only a jerk would sneer at people who can't run as fast a "slowpoke" or not as strong as a "weakling". But it's chic to call other people "stupid" if they know different things than you do.

The exact wrong way to prove you are smart is to post a bunch of memes...
 
My Boy's doctorate was based on formulas you need super computers to use. Tell me more about whatever the hell the OP is.

This ⬆️ is funny because it proves your premise 😄

You only know the BS the government wants you to know. Anything else you may learn is only enough to make you a "useful" tool to society. Frank Zappa did a song about it. I suggest you give it a listen. And pay close attention to the lyrics. They are amongst the truest you will ever hear in any song. Here it is.

I'm sorry that a lot of people have been calling you that.

You have value and worth Friend.

I wasn't trying to prove how smart I am. But how stupid the vast majority of people are. And some of the reasons why. So guess what. You were WRONG!

Tell me if this next statement is true or false. "The world didn't get to be as screwed up as it is because of anybody's talent when it comes to mathematics."

Maybe in your obviously limited ability to think. And where does that come from? Being stupid.

Truth is a point of view.

The question here are your qualifications for judging the stupidity of others, when all we know about your qualifications are that (a) you post memes to make a point and (b) you post YouTube links to random songs to defend your point. Two actions that, by the way, are indicative of one's lack of qualification to evaluate the intelligence of others.
 
Sure you do. It may not have been done here. But no doubt it can be done. For example, there are probably trillions of advanced extraterrestrial civilizations throughout the observable universe that are FAR older than humanity that have done so.

I see you demonstrate no ability to explain how. Perhaps you cannot?
 
'Stupid' is not a measurable, objective metric. It's mostly just a snarl world.

That written, I do like its subverted usage.
