On the one hand they are immensely infuriating, being so smug about being so confidently wrong. But on the other hand, these people know nothing, they know no history, they know no theory and where would they even know it from having grown up in a culture that deliberately miseducated them. It is like listening to children talk about space lasers or robots. They are dangerous and they should be prevented from spreading their ignorance to others but is there any point in being mad at them?
Im mad at people who are smug while being willingly ignorant. They know they have no clue what they're talking about. It is like listening to children and that's what's irritating. They arent. They're grown ups and should behave as such. If they dont know anything and dont want to learn they should shut the fuck up, don't voice your opinion if it's worse than useless
