    Oh yeah?

    You should try it some time. Anything that smacks of book learning or high culture is anathema to about 85% of the population and another 10% pretend that they know less than they do.

    I would agree that it is ignorance and not stupidity but it is self imposed and they have strong opinions on it too.

    Just think of RVG…

    and conceals from the stupid,
    the vast limits of their knowledge.
