The 5 basic laws of human stupidity
1. Always and inevitably, each of us underestimates the number of stupid individuals in the world
2. The probability that a certain person is stupid is independent of any other characteristic of the same person
Cipolla was convinced that stupidity was another characteristic...In this analysis it was found that the distribution of stupidity was uniform, no matter how much we ascended in the educational level.
3. A stupid person is one who causes harm to another person or group without at the same time obtaining a benefit for himself or even damaging himself
A stupid person is one who harms the others and also himself.
“There are people who, with their unlikely actions, not only cause harm to other people, but also to themselves. These people belong to the superstupid genre”.
4. Non-stupid people always underestimate the harmful potential of stupid people
According to Cipolla, we continually forget the danger that stupid people represent. He says that “Stupid people are dangerous and unfortunate because reasonable people find it difficult to imagine and understand a stupid behavior.”
5. The stupid person is the most dangerous person that exists
“All human beings are included in four fundamental categories: the naive, the intelligent, the evil and the stupid […]...The stupid is not inhibited by self-consciousness”, wrote Cipolla to outline the last fundamental law of human stupidity.

Every time you think this shite can't get any dumber....
Just imagine how many times people will say "field...no, I mean practicum," blush, and apologize in that intellectual sink hole. Academia is unsalvageable at this point.

"Don't you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thought-crime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it. Every concept that can ever be needed will be expressed by exactly one word, with its meaning rigidly defined and all its subsidiary meanings rubbed out and forgotten. . . . The process will still be continuing long after you and I are dead. Every year fewer and fewer words, and the range of consciousness always a little smaller. Even now, of course, there's no reason or excuse for committing thought-crime. It's merely a question of self-discipline, reality-control. But in the end there won't be any need even for that. . . . Has it ever occurred to you, Winston, that by the year 2050, at the very latest, not a single human being will be alive who could understand such a conversation as we are having now?"

^ will one day be the only word taught in American school systems. Meaning will be interpreted based on the speed, volume, and inflection of how it’s said.
