The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity (article | mini-book)
Details
I don't know about you, but when I hear someone being called stupid I feel some sort of resistance to accept, that the accused person justly deserved such a horrendous title. Not only that it literally sucks to be stupid, but it could be wildly unfair to be labelled as one under false pretences... Based on what measurements one could be truly STUPID? IQ? EQ? don't worry we won't get into this polarizing rabbit hole. With Cipolla's article The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity, there are no units to count, no test and scores, only the consequences of your action socially.
Let's meet and discuss stupidity with elegant lenses.
