      That’s bullshit, it may be a “funny quote” but it has no correlation with reality. I fear that people think this is an actual rule of thumb applicable to the world- it isn’t.

        My man, the world is vast. Vast. So both can apply in the context of the whole world. There are a lot of evil people, yes. But there are way, way, way, waaaaaay more stupid (read: below average) people.

        What was that quote again? Paraphrasing: “Think of the intelligence of the average person. Half of the world is dumber than him/her.

          Yes. But it’s not a rule, like Occam’s Razor is, but that one is moronic too so don’t even get me started. Funny != True (necessarily)
