  1. I think most stupidity comes from stunted brain development, either from malnutrition, a lack of contact, or some kind of abusive atmosphere growing up. I don't think it's really genetic so much as a failure to develop. That's why everybody should have a chance to grow up well. It helps all of us. Here we are seeing the effects of frontal lobe distress. This can happen over a much longer term through pollution or physical damage to the brain. Stress taxes nutrients that are critical to brain function. Blood sugar drop shows externally as fatigue. It all interferes with higher brain function making us more easily lead by nefarious actors.
