Hi, Maven,

People are idiots not when they don't know things (that's ignorance), but when they don't have the capacity to know things. And when a normal or smart person does something idiotic (an everyday occurrence), they deserve to be called idiots. But real idiots, when they haven't done anything truly objectionable, should NOT have it shoved in their faces.

Take care!
Thanks for this!
