Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.”
― Mark Twain
Absolutly..!
"Never argue with idiots. From a distance it's hard to tell which is which."
people and their arguments; to win an argument, it has to be a cooperative thing; both people need to win. If one person lost, then you both lost because one of you failed to educate the other, and the other person is just wrong.
Exactly. The key is to utilize your own experience rather than theirs
@@stephan4923 you tried😂
My grandpa used to say stupid people that thought they were smart were the most dangerous. He worked on oil rigs in the late 70’s and had so many stories of guys that wouldn’t listen to anyone and got hurt, sometimes badly.
My dad worked in the oil field for years, and I had the displeasure of working with him in a welding shop for nearly 2 years. I never met a more awful, stupid and bullying group of people, but it gave me an undying appreciation for what my dad put up with, in order to keep us alive.
Stupidity + Confidence = Danger
So called smart people are delivery drivers of Uber eats ??? Heck ! We never knew that!!! Shame !!
Violent stupid people are the most dangerous.
The oilfield is absolutely overwhelmed with extremely stupid people.

Correcting people is the best way to know who really is your friend. Listening when you are corrected is how you know you are a good friend. You cannot trust idiots.
Arguing with a genius is difficult, arguing with an idiot is imossible
Impossible!! Yes.
An argument with an idiot will only end up in them dragging you down with them.

Well said, my man.
Idk why I love it when someone tells me something I don't know or change my perspective on things.
There's nothing better than talking or discussing with someone and finding new ideas or perspective; its like wow really omg I want to learn more about it, please tell me more. They've intentionally or unintentionally have open a box of new ideas LOVE IT. Unfortunately most people just want to tell you how right they are and how wrong you are it's like ¿? are we talking or competing?¿
I totally agree with you. I love learning new things because the world is so interesting! And I love re-thinking something if I'm looking at it in a new way, or from a different perspective. I can't understand why someone should want to toot their own horn all day long, and miss all the new music.

Dis how you know your have a big brain
"I'm smart enough to know when I'm wrong and to know what I don't know." -that's what I say
If you bring up your lack of intelligence, you are proving that you both have the pride to note your stupidity and the smarts to acknowledge your lack of knowledge.
I always say something very similar .... “The more you know, the more you realize you DON’T know.”
I always think of this, whenever I have a thought or concept, anything, I check myself. Chances are I'm catastrophically stupid, and so self awareness and silence is key.
A real sign of intelligence is the willingless of someone to be wrong about something and change their mind about it immediately when presented with logic and objective proof. I didn't even think it could be until I read this comment section, and hell. I can relate AF.
Lmao the amount of times I've been called "stubborn" because I didn't believe something someone told me blindly is ridiculous 😂😂😂
"You know you're wrong" *proceeds to show no evidence of how they are right* "but you won't say it because you can't stand to loose"
does this sound familiar to any one of you?
Learning that you are wrong takes also trusting that someone else is right. Many people are paranoid and also suspect of people in positions of authority to say that they are right.
Being wrong in history both evolutionarily and culturally meant you were worthless, stupid and inferior.
This way of thinking does not encourage people to admit being wrong even when they realize they are wrong. It encourages them to double down.
Adages, as funny as they are, like what Carlin said, don't really help in the long run.
If it's already hard enough to change your mind because of crystalizing, culture makes it impossible. We don't think it's okay to be wrong, so people will deny, defend and excuse being so.
“I am smarter than the average person.”
-The Average Person
Thanks, you made me laugh
Pretty true. What an oxymoron. Get it, moron.
Averages are a funny thing. If ten people take a test, and the results are 100, 95, 95, 90, 90, 85, 80, 80, 80, and 0
then nine of those people can accurately say they score above average (which is 79.5).
Likewise, since it's safe to assume there are more people in the world with one or no arms then there are 3 armed people, it would be accurate for any 2 armed person to claim they have an above average number of arms.
And all that being said... that does sound like something the average person would say.
Accurate

My wife had an arguement just yesterday with a homeless woman...... I shared this comment to her. 😁
I remembered when I was still back in my native born first country before coming to the US, there was once I was in the unforgettable conversation with a woman, a "friend" or "a colleague" if I should put her as is, I don't want to be rude to put her as stupid, but I do think she is.........she tiredlessly argue with me cordless phone are only cell phones! NO, cordless phone can also be cell phones and also landline phone. But, back then at least 25 years ago when landline phones were still used widespread, and cell phones or mobile phones were just at the start; people have two types and cordless phones were just started to put into use. At that time, I see cordless phones were both landline and cell phones or back then people call mobile phones. However, my colleague fiercefully argued with me just to shut my mouth so she could win the argument that cordless phones, to her opinion, was only used for mobile phones! I of course shut up, and she "convincingly" believed she won the argument!

I didn’t even know I was an active learner until someone pointed it out! And I’m carrying my Sophomore classmates with Geometry as a Freshman! Oh, I guess I am a little less dumb than I thought.
Actually intelligent people usualy underestimate themselves
Because they view the world as they know less when it comes to knowledge
Its one of the imp qualities which lies within the intelligent minds
Therefore it makes them to be more curious
Curiosity is another imp quality
And curiosity leads them to seek more knowledge
They know that they know very less thats why they seek knowledge
They never say I know everything
Therefore hence the famous quote for the intelligent ppl

“The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence.”
― Charles Bukowski
Chuck is one of the great thinkers of his time. 😁 "Born Like This" is probably my favorite poem...
How I see this: because the so called ''stupid person'' has only one reality and for this reason that person is thurley convinced that is the truth- the fact. These persons live in a one dimensional world. And since they can only see one concept to them this is solid and of course they will do everything in their power to hold onto this concept and they never question it because to them there isn't anything there to question.
The intelligent person I call this a AWARE PERSON has the ability to look at the same subjects from different sides- exhamain it, question it and because this person can see more than one side -- come to realise that it is possible there is more to this subject what she/ he has seen so far has found out about and that is the reason for doubt.
what if both ?
@@soloauditor Seems a fair analogy to me, also though the 'stupid person' always think they are smarter than most, and also the lie-ers believe that lying is the norm for everyone.

I was full of doubts about that, while he was so confident it was legit. He felt very smart, he found a quick way to get rich.
Every time I tried to make him question his decisions, he would only try to prove me wrong, all he cared about was being right.
I'm not sure what happened to him.

I have a curious mind and therefore I always asked a lot of questions no matter how simple they seem. A lot of times I would get people looking at me like I am intellectually challenged which is a bit frustrating when your goal is only to learn and better yourself. The more I knew about any subject, the more I would realise there was so much more to learn, yet I came across some fairly limited people in some subjects that would be way more confident that I will ever be. I guess ignorance is bliss.

@Jonas REYES ironic. I was told i got anxiety
@Mike OB1 twas but a joke
I am standing on a sidewalk watching two people argue. At first, I could tell right away that one was an intelligent person and the other one was an idiot. After awhile I was no longer able to tell who was who.
In all honesty my go to method in arguing with someone that I perceive as being ignorant or dumb is to just NEVER make any declarative statements. I love logic and reason and it's helped me so much in life so, instead, I'll choose to purpose questions where logic or reason is the primary method in answering them and see what I get from them in return. Usually, it's always a direct response attacking me with personal assumptions followed by an immediate block or announcing they don't need to spend any more time with me. I rarely if ever get a moment of victory but the actions I see them take can be interpreted as bowing out of the challenge and that's enough for me to avoid feeling insecure about my positions.

@@alterworlds1629 It's from a psychology perspective called being an "idiot troll". It's also the Dunning Kruger effect in action. IE they are assuming they are correct with zero concrete evidence.
@@tyleregan3001 Refusing to argue =/= winning an argument. It just shows that you are unable to articulate your thoughts in a concise manner, and are incapable for standing up for what you believe in. If anything, not even attempting to educate someone who you've deemed "stupid" is not only more akin to losing said argument, but you are letting ignorance and misinformation propagate further than if you had stepped in, making you part of the problem.
I agree with most of this. When I meet someone more intelligent, like a scientist, I just want to ask them a lot of stuff. It doesn’t intimidate me for as far as I know.
I can relate to this video. I am pursueing a career in Academia, but I constantly doubt my worth and knowledge, but people still come to me for advice and teachings. But I really dislike argueing with stupid people who are dead set on something idiotic and I ofte just leave them, cause I feel its a waste of my time.
If a flat earther denies the existence of the South Celestial Pole, then arguing with him is a waste of time. 😅
It's because dumb people can dumb *way harder* than a smart person can smart.

I have often considered the question, who is the stupid person? The stupid person, or the person arguing with the stupid person?
Arguing with an idiot is like playing chess with a pigeon - it knocks the pieces over, shits on the board and struts around like it's won.
Relatable
Spot on analogy.
But how dumb is person to pick a pigeon for such a contest???
@@futureisyours3016 good point
Oh man I love this analogy.
Without even going through the video, here's the short answer.
If idiots had the capacity to realise that they're idiots, then they wouldn't be idiots.
It's the short explanation of the cognitive bias known as the " Dunning- Kruger Effect" and Thoughty does a pretty good job explaining it!
There's a lot of information on this and other cognitive biases in Wikipedia if you want to check them out.
On the other hand, if you're asking if I personally can provide scientific evidence, I only have my personal experiences and as they are not taking place in a controlled environment with measurable and quantifiable results, they cannot be considered evidence.
However, they mostly do conside with the scientific theories, so I tend to trust them- when they don't, I just dig deeper.
Daath Gnosis...
I think the gist of this comment is that a "true" idiot, will be unaware of their idiocy...
While an individual who can admit (to themself and others) that they do not know everything, is less likely to be an idiot.
Of course, any idiot can pick apart someone's statement on semantics alone.
@ Jerry Granville Jr.
No...the point is to admit it to themselves (if it is true) , because I could be wrong- or anyone else for that matter.
@ Daath Gnosis
Let me elaborate then....
Can one fix something that they cannot know it needs fixing?
If one could know and eventually realise (maybe with the help of others) that something needs fixing, wouldn't they start working on it?
That was the spirit of my comment... if one can know they're being an idiot, they can start working on not being one
BTW if you know another word for me to use instead of "capacity", would you let me know?
English is not my mother tongue, so I sometimes miss the mark! Thanks!
Daath Gnosis, I don't think you should ignore the "if". He didn't say an idiot is not an idiot, he provided a condition that if an idiot knew they were an idiot they would not be idiots, which doesn't mean they magically stop being idiots as you might have understood, but rather the impossibilty of their existence in the first place.

“The more you know, the more you realise you don’t know” - Aristotle
Very true!🤔
The more you know, the less you understand
The more you know... umm ummm nvm
It sucks, you spend time trying to educate yourself only to realise you're just gaining a basic grasp, but at the same time its great, Wish I felt the same at 10-16.
Thanks for showing me the Aristotle attribution. Not being familiar with this quote, the way I've been saying it is:
The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know, of this I am certain.
I love watching videos of people analyzing me ❤
This video is pure sociology and I am happy that we are provided with references because if this got studyed th this behave can explain all religion attitude towards classical knowledge. I have noticed that more often than not the religious people are the ones ho know less about their religion history and they fear racional arguments for the reasons this video explains :D sorry for the stretch.. good work!
Smart people will never know the joy of living in a world where everyone else is wrong !
😂😂😂
I feel this every day. I wouldn't call myself smart so much as introspective (I hadn't actually watched the whole video before writing this so I didn't realize he even used this, so so much for my "I'm not THAT smart" statement lol...). However, because of this, I always feel I'm inadequate in some way. How I wish to truly feel like my shit doesn't stink.
@@TurtleSauceGaming I admire intelligence but genuinely feel that if I were stupid my life would be much more enjoyable. Feelings of inadequacy and social issues are not worth it lol.
Since intelligent people have educational pedigrees and dumbasses have the Dunning-Kruger card, who ends up subjectively feeling the dumbest? There are arguments I don't even attempt to win - for example, my wife believes in angels and a friend thinks the Covid vaccine will kill everyone in three years as part of a population control plot by 'the elites' (and has plenty of links from two bullshit websites to prove it)
@@TravisJones812 As for the latter, just tell them the Russians are spreading that information to sow distrust of the American population their own government, as to destabilize the country and weaken it's presence on a world stage. Conspiracy nuts can be won over with a better conspiracy.
The best part is when, a few months after the story of a doctor using this idea (he phrased it as "perhaps anti-vax messaging is just an attempt at foreign powers to weaken our healthcare system?") to get a woman to agree to a modified vaccine schedule, there was some article that was released about supposed Russian involvement in pushing anti-vax nonsense. I mean, who knows about the truth behind it. I certainly don't care enough to validate it, but it would be a smart way to destabilize your enemies.
One thing I've come to realize after specializing to my profession is that basically "the more you know the more you realize the less you know". An intelligent person knows how complex and difficult things are but a stupid person thinks they know everything.
Yeah, that's the dunning Kruger effect.
Even a "dumb" person could know everything about something. Like Johnny B. Goode, who never ever learned to read or write so well, but he could play the guitar just like ringing a bell. Or the local farmhand who's mind never wanders too far from cheap vodka and sausage, but damn he can take apart and rebuild a seized engine in a day. While totally wasted. And it works. I think what makes people really stupid is when they think they know everything about everything, and worse, are loud about it, and even much worse, try to make other people play by their rules.
@@TTFerdinandI actually say something similar from time to time, I usually end up being seen as a 'pretty clever guy' but I never agree on that.
It's true, I can be smart with numbers, remembering a lot of stuff, thinking, grammar, most stuff relating to my job (construction/electrician) or problem solving.
But it's equally true that I'm dumb at reading people, I know literally nothing regarding cars... Motorcycles, airplanes... Anything with transport really, I'm dumb at programming, easily forget 3/4th of what I need to get from a shop in less than 3 minutes, and daaamn I can be ignorant or lazy even if I certainly need to 'get my ass up'.
Am I 'intelligent' for knowing the exact prices of whatever take-away we get this evening? What if I tell you that I can... But ask me what color the car in front of me had for 10 mins & I assure you I can't answer that, so am I 'stupid' because of that?
I tend to say people have smarts and dumbs together, intelligent people might just 'use' their smarts more to their advantage making them look smarter
@@TTFerdinand I mean no, and no. It's impossible to actually learn everything about anything. When you use the term "everything" that means literally every possible thing there is to know about the object by definition.
Does the farm hand know everything the engineers knew about all the finite details of how that engine functions? Absolutely not. So how can he know everything about that engine? Even if you limit the scope to "everything about repairs of that engine" there are circumstances which the farm hand would deem the engine "beyond repair" and someone else would probably say otherwise.
But, smart vs dumb isn't about specific knowledge. It is more about (as the OP stated) how open you are to realize you don't know anything about anything..
If the farm hand knows the engine and thinks that since that's all he needs to know that he knows everything, than he is certainly dumb as hell. His brain isn't even capable of reaching out and asking "Is there more?"
Have you ever actually met somebody who genuinely thinks they know everything?
You can't win an argument with a stupid person.
I love to meet intelligent people! They’re so much more interesting to talk to. My two closest friends are both retired college professors, one a retired biophysics professor and the other a retired organic chemistry professor. My late husband was a mathematician and I’m a math geek myself, although my BA is in English. I discovered a love for math when I was in my forties. I’m now in my late seventies and I still study math every morning,
so, basically:
“Smart people know that they don’t know everything,
whereas dumb people think they know everything”
Blessings to you!!! Seriously I feel this is how it is.
