I call what Lauren Boebert exhibits “confident stupidity”. She’s stupid and she’s confident showing it. Same for MTG.

u/TheEPGFiles 1d ago

My pet theory is they think being smart is the process of just disagreeing with everyone and everything.

Like, hey, one plus one is two and then they say, NUH UH and... well THEY think that makes them look smart...

129

u/FroggyStorm 1d ago

This actually is a learned behavior. Being a fool, everything they say gets corrected. So from their point of view, correcting people and being insufferable is what someone who is smarter does.

It's not their fault they are trying to apply this principle in an upward direction. They're just at the bottom of the barrel.

You say you're being sarcastic, but that's actually a pretty good explanation.

Yeah, was also confused by the /s. That seems pretty logical.

u/Maryland_Bear 1d ago

The smartest people realize the things they don’t know. Dumber folks think they’re experts in everything.

Practical example: Albert Einstein was asked to be the first President of Israel. He refused, because he knew nothing about politics. (I’m unsure if he understood President of Israel is a largely ceremonial position and the real power rests with the Prime Minister.)

Weaponized incompetence

u/Lalamedic 1d ago

This implies they could learn if they wanted to but they refuse. They don’t think they need to learn. They are that dumb. Dunning–Kruger effect could be argued, but I don’t think they are even that smart.

u/StanchoPanza 1d ago edited 1d ago

It's not new.
"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge" - Isaac Asimov, 1980

and also
"“I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time -- when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness...

The dumbing down of American is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance”

― Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark, 1995

Every time I see these kinds of things I'm reminded of the right attacking AOC for being "just a bartender" and even if that were true. She never says anything half as stupid as this shit

u/InAllThingsBalance 1d ago

AOC is college educated, too. Didn’t Boebert finally get her GED after she ran for office?

94

u/Bad_Wizardry 1d ago

She had to get it as a minimum qualification.

Which isn’t to shame her. You don’t need a HS diploma to continue to learn and self educate. Boebert certainly did nothing of that sort.

22

u/sun4moon 1d ago

She learned how to commit sex acts in public, in front of minors. I can’t imagine that’s a skill she was born with.

u/Cathal_Author 1d ago edited 1d ago

AFTER she failed it on three previous attempts. She didn't actually "Pass" until after it was confirmed she won her election. And the Colorado GED test isn't really that hard. Honestly most people in the state could pass it after 9th grade.

Correction, she won her primary, not her general election. Really though that part of Colorado has always been painfully red and in the past decade it's rot has been spreading east.

AOC was top of her class at Boston College, was a great debater back in high school, and she is an economist. boebert doesn’t even deserve to be spited on, a waste of a congressional chair among many things.

I'm genuinely surprised she's capable of talking and blinking at the same time. She couldn't count her arse cheeks and come up with the same number twice.

She is kind of the product of the American education system. Most Americans do not know the difference between Colombia and Columbia

u/Cathal_Author 1d ago

Point of fact she's NOT a product of the US education system. She dropped out and is so incredibly stupid she thinks Florida was a blue state, and her home town of Altamonte Springs, Florida was run by Democrats.

Apparently she forgot you can look up voting records because that place is redder than a maga hat and has been her whole life.

Frankly Florida owes Colorado an apology for letting its average citizen escape the asylum.

They cling so hard to identity politics because they lack any true character, integrity, substance, and sense of civic responsibility.

Going on about bathroom politics, border invasion, and nationalism is what keeps their base engaged. They can’t possibly act on anything that will make our country better or safer because that’s not what will grab the short, angry attention span of their constituents.

It’s a sad but honest reality we have to face. Unless the rest of the registered voters decide to do their part, this is what we will experience.

I would wager that not a single person outside of their weird little "we are pro-America but we hate everything about America" clique has ever given even a passing thought to the names of the Gulf of Mexico, Washington DC, or places like Denali as sources of national pride that need to be renamed.

What you don't get is that we, as a country, have full legal possession of the District of Columbia and can, in fact, change the name with no legal consequences. We can say "We are now calling the federal district that contains the United States capital the District of America. Please make sure this is updated properly in your records so that there is no problem with postal or other communications".

Whereas we do NOT have full legal possession of the Gulf of Mexico and cannot, unilaterally, change the name and expect everyone else to just accept it.

Raise your hands if you’re cool with removing Cristopher Columbus from our state/city/ect names? Like I think district of America sounds dumb but I’m not a fan of that Columbus fellow.
