    People know less than they think they do, which is why everyone calling everyone else morons is probably correct.

      ‘Moron’ was (and technically may still be) a clinical term meaning someone of intelligence so low they’re unable to function without supervision. Every time they invent a new non-emotionally-loaded term for low intelligence, we ruin it by using it as an insult.

      It’s a beautiful thing.
