To be clear, the really frustrating part is realizing how stupid the supposedly "smart" members of society are. The ones who are convinced of their own infallible intellect. The midwits.
Stupidity isn't the problem. Dumb people can be smart. The problem is the veneration we as a society have for people who are utterly ill-equipped to be making any sort of meaningful decisions, whether because they're innately stupid or simply refuse to use their brains correctly.
The people who are smart enough to feel smart, but not smart enough to be smart are the true retards of society. And they are the cause of a great many of its issues.
