Stupidity is an Epidemic

stu·pid·i·ty
st(y)o͞oˈpiditē/
noun
  1. 1.
    behavior that shows a lack of good sense or judgment. (Google)

Stupidity is an epidemic.  It is a cancer of the brain that eats away at all intellectual rationalizations.  It affects people from all walks of life, socioeconomic locations, religious affiliations, and cultural backgrounds.  It masquerades as news stories, political discourse, “politically correct” social policing, religious and atheist banter, pop music, and most of the time simple word vomit.

People say the first thing that comes to their minds without considering whether it holds any value for them or the people nearby forced to hear it.  I am abhorred by some of the things that the youth say in jest.  I am stupefied by the loud and brash opinions plastered all over social media immortalizing some people’s stupidity for eternity.  My flesh cringes every time I turn on the TV to see blatant agenda pushing even when the agenda goes against all human rationalization.  My  very soul twitches every time I turn on the radio and hear a song that presents a symphony of idiocy.

It is true that we all have our thoughts and opinions about life.  Every viewpoint is valuable but if what you share is purposely deceptive, is cruel and offensive, seeks to destroy others or yourself, is inhumane, promotes degenerate behavior, seeks to dumb down not to enlighten or is aiding in the breakdown of the community at large, WHAT YOU ARE SPEWING IS STUPIDITY!   Cease and desist immediately!



Thanks for your time and understanding. Have a splendid day! J
