Americans are some of the most unintelligent people on earth

I think humanity is a big dumb collective. Americans are just arrogant in our stupidity.

They're also some of the smartest people on the planet. America is suffering the same problem we all are - right wing shitbags and hostile nations weaponising our stupid people through social media.

And the most frustrating thing is it's not because we have to be. We literally choose to be. It's infuriating.

I agree we are number 1 in this regard, but other nations sure do their best to unseat us from our stupid throne.
