- Carlo M. Cipolla wrote in his book "The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity" that stupidity is one of the most powerful dark forces. What makes stupid people dangerous? Are they more dangerous than evil people?
Where do our actions and behavior fall?
Based on Cipolla's book "The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity", we will explore those questions. More specifically, we will look at the Five Basic Laws of Stupidity.

So important to around oneself with good people!
Absolutely!
@@invisiblecompass Is there any possibility to refine the video to be more visually easy to digest by little children and people with different forms of mental disabilities?
Love your video, but I can't find one video that presents the information in a way that a 5 year old can listen to till the end, easily understand and remember.
@@JennaHasm what I could think of, as a future project, is to create a channel that aims more at children (including more visuals).
My videos, at the moment, are more aimed at adults/young adults and that's also the group I want to focus on with this Channel.
@@invisiblecompass can you share a pdf/course on creating good video production?
@@JennaHasm there are many good sources for this online, who make a better job than me.
I'm thinking of creating a course on Mental Models, on Thinking for daily life.
"Essentially stupid people are dangerous and damaging because reasonable people find it difficult to understand unreasonable behavior." This is why I talk to a lot of stupid and unintelligent people. Usually when I'm taking a break from studying. Stupid people often attack you psychologically or socially and popular rhetoric is constantly changing these days.
Your last sentence, exactly. It feels like some people just change their opinions as the popular rhetoric changes.
@@invisiblecompass their opinions don't change because they've never had a coherent one. The rhetoric changes, that's it.
@@FlareGunDebate okay, got it.
@@invisiblecompass @FlareGunDebate aka "Useful Idiots", or the ones being used by actual smart, but sinister people seeking their own aims.
In my experience most individuals are capable of basic to mid tasks as long as their needs are satisfied to have the necessary motivation in fulfilling their obligations signed in their contract. What is the most unfortunate is how laziness and lack of respect is verbally explained as not knowing, not understanding or balant lying. Basic human sociology. Some are more capable or faster due genes others are born in wealth or connections etc..., but I have the experience too see through just sheer laziness and carelessness of their duties. It is normal, but an intelligent person will understand that everything goes both ways and even around.
"how laziness and lack of respect is verbally explained as not knowing, not understanding" -> Interesting! Actually, laziness is really often a lose-lose.
Avoid stupid people by all means necessary
good idea! and trying to make no stupid actions by one self (in regard to Charlie Munger!)
