First, I've come to some belief that an element now exists in the US...where political ideology is being organized around a more developed factor where less intelligent (dumber) people are recruited and developed into a cult-like ideology.
In this group, you get a list of thoughts, without much discussion being conducted. They are simply dumped upon you, and the reaction is....repeat the process and hope that no one asks questions.
The fact that college-level 'kids' are in this group? Yeah, that worries me that they'd be this stupid/naïve.
Second, I've come to believe that around 20-percent of the general public that one might bump into.....are probably qualified in the status of being 'stupid'. Half of them might eventually emerge and improve their status....the other half will stay stupid for the remainder of their lives. My problem? Guessing which group I'm talking to, and if I should waste 10 minutes talking 'sense' into them....bringing them out of the 'pit'.
Third, I watched a video today....of a guy who walked into a Wal-Mart and asked the three young 'clerks' about getting a left-handed hammer. The three probably spent at least fifty seconds....engaged in looking up a left-handed hammer. Far as I could tell....they weren't willing to give up on the search (that's a positive). On common sense? I'm giving up on them.
