Unfortunately, you fall into the category of stupid people. (Oops). Of course, it has nothing to do with your IQ or intelligence in general. Stupid in this sense refers to the fact that you recklessly harm yourself and others—even when there is no gain for you. Cipolla believes that stupidity is an inevitable part of humanity. But those who embrace it are the actual stupid ones. It is relatively easy to stop being a foolish person. You just need to stop acting recklessly and carelessly. Plus, you should think about the upsides and downsides to your actions before committing them. Those who care about themselves as well as others and behave accordingly are never stupid. So, maybe it is time for you to become a thoughtful member of society to never ask yourself, “am I stupid?” again.
