More and more people are saying it. Call stupid people stupid. Enough already. You are able to live without Smallpox because of a vaccine and post on your phone because smart people made those things. Shut the fuck up if you're an idiot and be thankful

my plan to get this country back on track consists of one bullet point: i propose we stop pretending stupid people arent stupid just because theyre loud and theres a lot of them

We used to call this stupidity. There were smart people and stupid people and we let the smart people do the things they were good at and the stupid people were taken care of and didn't need to worry about what the smart people were doing. But now we let the stupid people think they're smart.

The Renee Good murder is so blatant, indefensible and nuance-free that at least it’ll force the Trump Admin to finally say, “Because FUCK YOU, that’s why.” We can actually make progress from that point if we hit that wall.

An essential development over the past decade-plus is that the ignorant went from feeling chastened when their ignorance was revealed to banding together and deciding that, actually, they were right. They might disagree at times, but they agreed that ignorance itself was an indicator of trust.

remember folks, we cant have gun restrictions because if we do the federal government will occupy our streets, imprison people without due process, ship dissidents to foreign gulags and things of that nature
