hello everyone, it's been quite a long time since my last post. I was busy with assignments and i really didn't have any idea about what to write :S. But today i've prepared something to write, and i hope my writings would be useful for you all out there :)
Today i'll write about stupidity / ignorance / foolishness. In my point of view stupidity is divided into two groups,
1. stupidity which is caused by lack of information,
- this kind of stupidity is existed usually because of one's inability to keep up with world's rapid advance, which sometimes left some group of people trailing behind of it.
- people which belong to this category are easy to spur, for instance they'd use some classic method to solve a problem, and they often generalize something.
I'd give you an example of a person who belongs to this category.
that was a fine clear day when my brother and I got our first motorcycle, we are so excited and wanna try the thing directly. But unfortunately we had to go. After awhile we came back home and as we ignite the motor, one of our neighbour showed up and said something foolish. he thought a new motorcycle shouldn't be ignited with electric ignition (that's an old belief, but just valid for two-stroke engined motorcycle). he is certainly not an up-to-date man, and that's why he belongs to the first category.
2. on the other hand there's this stupidity which occurred because of being 'too up-to-date'
- this second category of stupidity is caused by the media, if anyone ask why, i'd say due to the fact that everyone, intentionally or not, watch what is broadcasted / spread in media. and it's getting more and more noticeable nowadays. they put a lot of things into our head and the most popular medium they're using,
- social network
- movies
- tv / radio broadcast
through those three tools, 'they' try to load up our mind with new 'ideas', and these 'ideas' would be repeated everywhere (through big screen in big cities, ads in internet, news in TV and in radio). According my recent post, ideas are resilient and highly contagious, and of course 'they' know it, that's why they always give the repetition, so that the ideas they give would be planted in our head.
- as the act or chain effect from the ideas, which were introduced by 'them', people nowadays get a 'new' perspective about something, which before now was regarded as bad thing.
- an easy example for it, about a week ago i saw a banner whose content is about discouraging homophobic. i mean, why? it's always natural and acceptable for human beings to have certain phobia. Moreover according to basic law of nature, two species, who are not fertile (unable to give a birth), aren't supposed to be married. there's of course an exception for women, who are infertile. law of nature can be regarded as a theory which is not died out of time or modernization, that's my personal opinion.
- Subsequently 'they' provide us a tool to let the stupidity spread even more instant, this thing is currently named 'democracy'.
- as the effect of this tool, some ignorant beings have the chance to get a seat in parlement, or even be a president. this kind of effect is expected by them.
- also to be noted, the basic concept of democracy is that everyone have the same right to give their very own opinion / argument. This is the messed up part according to the fact that number of ignorant beings > smart beings. (this is the result of 'their' work in media)
The chain effect of this phenomenon could be seen in opinion or actions which are made by the group of ignorant beings. they would make foolish opinion and do imbecile actions. and why it can be put into effect? Because of democracy, it lets the people to discuss and decide which opinion or action is the best for them. The basic of it can be really good and convincing, but we have to realise that the number of ignorant beings are a lot more than smart one. From that perspective it can be stated that most of opinions which are made are foolish / ignorant / stupid. 'Their' main objective probably is to throw the world into turmoil, and by introduce democracy they have very high percentage to fulfill their objective.
During the chaos 'they' would give civilians a 'saviour', which is NOT, but as we know the majority of the people are too ignorant to see the truth. As expected almost all beings would worship him / her in the first place, he'd be like an idol. All these factors would make it easy for him to control civilians like puppets, because stupid people are easy to control and to manipulate. this theory was once mentioned by chinese philosopher, but I forget the name :(
Last but not least here's one popular quote:
"A wise man makes his own decision, an ignorant man follows public opinion"
Have a nice Monday, folks :)
