- happytoexplain 5y agoThe average person is not stupid, but the average person is irrational about some topic that has high visibility, usually due to tense emotions. I find that this is usually what people are referring to when they say people are "stupid" - not that they aren't clever or don't have good instincts or are low IQ.
- edgyquant 5y agoThat’s definitely the case, I just take issue with calling them stupid.
