The Prerogative of Adults

Ever notice that as we get older, people start to be more firm in their opinions and predictions? You start to hear old-man sentences like '*insert presidential candidate's name* lost because of *insert reason*'. Why do I have a bone to pick with such seemingly normal statements? Because these fools are often beyond their scope of expertise and very, very irritating. Some of these 'speakers' were not so long ago mere mommy's little boys and girls, bowing to their parent's every whim and fancy, and some still do. There is a fine line between filial piety and pure puppetry.

This is, of course, a necessary trait in the coded world of adults, but it also a sign of decay of mental capacity, a sign that these fools are beginning to close their mind against easy persuasion. These people are beginning to find their place in society, assume a profession and live out the rest of their lives in self-surety, and their ability to learn starts to plummet to 'adult' levels. This is unlike their anything-goes teenage years, where parental influence probably formed 70% of their world-wisdom (and not all parents are actually smart too. At most, smart enough to raise a child, but not smart enough to raise a smart child. Anyone can feed and bathe a dog. Oops am I very bad?).

The way to counter stupid people is to isolate them. A person placed in intellectual isolation has no one to bounce off ideas on, preventing stupidity from fomenting and affecting the people around them. In a liberal society, self-actualisation and fulfillment is placed in high regard. What if a person's 'self-actualisation' is to kill and steal? He would then be tried by law and go to prison. In the same way, a fundamentalist/extreme/stupid opinion is okay as long as it is kept to oneself. No one cares when you're intellectually retarded and keep to yourself, but an extroverted fool is an extremely irritating pest.

Whee! ^^..
