I’m thinking that all it really amounts to is a finding in game theory that cooperation for mutual benefit is the best life strategy and anyone who fails to realize this and try to live by it is either a moron or a sociopath. Problem is that it’s not that simple even in game theory. If you’re a sheep among wolves then dog eat dog rules are the most appropriate if you want to survive. Also, culture shapes and heavily influences individuals, so the line between stupid person and stupid culture is unclear, and there must be a correlation between the two.

Stupid people are not really a problem. The problem is the smart people who use stupid people against other smart people. Wise people will not use people; stupid or otherwise. I'm against smart people who use stupid people against other smart people.
