accepting stupid people
I have for a very long time not believed in stupid people. Because accepting the idea that someone was intellectually or imaginatively incapable seemed to undermine any sense of equality. How could we possibly have justice system of equals when it was possible that certain human beings could never meet an intellectual standard. I simply believed that I was blessed with some intellectual capacity because of my good birth, health, parenting, and education. And simply that those who were dumber then me did not have such a good blessing. It's like the first page of the Great Gatsby.
