The united states is divided pretty clearly near the center - smart people vs. dumb people. Neither side is capable of communicating with the other. It's hard to dumb yourself down that far, and impossible to rise up above ignorance when you are nothing but fool.
I do think it's funny that so many people I've disagreed with have one major complaint about me - not that my logic or evidence is flawed - rather that they think I act like I think I'm smarter than them.
There's no quicker way to look stupid than to get upset with someone for being smart. I never told them I felt I was smarter than them... But I am. It's a scary day when you can be perceived as wrong for being too smart and for hurting feelings with your education.
