What are the benefits of reading these stupid people quotes?

Stupid behavior is observational behavior, meaning a person has to know better than to do something stupid.

For example, a child unknowingly touching a hot stove and getting burned is not a result of stupidity.

That is a result of ignorance.

Ignorance is when you make a choice or engage in an action that is detrimental or dangerous without your awareness.

It is impossible for us to know what we do not know.

Stupid is different.

Stupid is knowingly touching a stove after we have been made aware that it is hot.

Knowingly making the choice to do a potentially dangerous or harmful thing when you know better is stupid.

What is stupidity, and how do you spot it?

Famous theorist and writer Frantz Fanon created a word to address stupidity academically.

He coined the term cognitive dissonance to describe a person who is presented with new information but refuses to acknowledge it because it challenges or goes against their worldview.

We have all said something stupid or done something stupid in our lives.

It is inevitable.

What makes stupid choices or stupid expressions special is that we can learn from them.

What makes stupid people stupid is that they choose not to learn from their mistakes.

Investor Auliq Ice points out, “It’s strange how some people ignore the logic just because they believe what they like to believe and ignore the truth.”

Stupid people tend to lead with their emotion over logic, which is understandable in emotionally charged moments but not wise as a basis for how we integrate information or engage others.
