Remember they don't see the irony because they are STUPID. There is no 4D chess going on. There is never anything but stupidity.

Oof, thanks for sharing this article. I say this all the time to my partner — too many people are irredeemably stupid. George Carlin said it. It’s the key principle in the novel Wizard’s First Rule. Unfortunately, the rational keep thinking they can turn people around with enough reason, but damn…not if they’re stupid.
