No, you can't inoculate yourself from stupidity and ignorance. This applies to the author as well.
- Y_Y 5y agoI respectfully disagree. I'm have been in close contact with stupidity and ignorance from a young age, and find that now I engage in large quantities of both without suffering any ill-effects. Stupidity is a perjorative term for an abundantly natural and ubiquitous state. Its results may be frustrating, but accepting the profound intellectual limitations of oneself and others is essential for emotional well-being.
