Thought of the day

I think that "stupid" is best shown by:
Forrest Gump: My mama says that stupid is as stupid does.
Foolishness, doing things that are just plain wrong towards others, that is the stupid I think of. Or being "intelligent" but using language to manipulate others. Today there is a battle to control language, the far left vs. the far right. Compassion towards others vs self reliance. They can co-exist and should, but powerful people today seem to take one view or the other. The people you don't agree with are "stupid". Moderation in life and language is what makes life worthwhile. Orwell had it right and was an unwitting predictor of the future, which is now... control media and language and you will have control over large groups of people who don't know better. Sadly that is "stupid".
