Belgian cartoonist Philippe Geluck in his 1995 book Ma Langue au Chat wrote, “La mort, c’est un peu comme la connerie. Le mort, lui, il ne sait pas qu’il est mort . . . ce sont les autres qui sont tristes. Le con c’est pareil.”
Ricky Gervais adapted that insight. In October 2013 he wrote on twitter, “When you are dead, you do not know you are dead. It’s only painful & difficult for others. The same applies when you are stupid.”
Being stupid is not a crime. But beyond a certain point, people with very low IQ damage society. Their retardation is pernicious, particularly if they occupy positions of power and influence. Here’s a recent example.
Senator Josh Hawley questioning one Dr. Verma.
Doesn’t Verma have any friends and family who would tell her to not embarrass herself so much in public? She should take a few lessons from the little boy in the 1990 movie Kindergarten Cop.
A five-year old could have answered that question without hesitation. But Verma couldn’t. She is pathetic.
