Magical Sailor Fuku

I just noticed that I have quieted down on the "I hate anime! Graar!" thing and that sorta bothers me a bit..

You sentimental beings out there agree with me that humanity's stupidity is slowly killing us all right?

Society will kill us. Then we will undergo an "renascaince"(I know I spelled it wrong) as a society and slowly return to normal before society is destroyed by war. And there will always be war, for it is human nature. Then we will bring ourselves back from the dust as a society then BOOM! There goes the human race. An example of society's death was the Dark Ages from 300-800 C.E. . At that point in time the world as we know it in the sense of human knowledge is dead. One day progress will come to a stand still because of a fascist goverment until the people get enough of their own free will to take it back into democracy/republic. Whew! That was a long drawn response.

"I don't see humanity. I see individuals, and people. Individuals are smart, and can think for themselves, and make rational decisions. But people, are the dumb ones, they will act together on rash descisions without a second thought (Riots and mobs come to mind)." Stellar nods, and once again has no answer for this poll.

I see humanity. As a whole, individuals are too intelligent for their own good, and too senseless to realize it. They will eventually kill themselves off, and nothing will save them. I also have no answer for this poll, because finality does not come from understanding, or, in t his case, the lack thereof.

"A Person may be smart. People are dumb." - Paraphrase.

"A Mob is only as smart as the dumbest guy in it."

Also, everybody is stupid. Just about different things at different times. It's not up to us to keep everyone ELSE smart...it's up to us to keep EACH OTHER smart...Even the 'smart' people can be dumb about many things.

It doesn't matter. We're not removed from natural progression. If we blow ourselves up, then so be it.

The inteligence of a mass of individuals drops as their number increases.

"Wizards first: rule people are stupid."

I don't think that they are born stupid, no (unless it's an actual disorder or something). But I do believe that they can develop into becoming stupid, but that can be just as much their own fault as someone making sure that they're ignorant, thus taking advantage of an ignorant person's high susceptibility to manipulation. And those manipulating? Well, while they may have the intelligence to know how to manipulate, their greed (or what else drives them) blinds them of potential consequences, sometimes even ones that would effect their own selves (but usually just the things not directly connected to them, such as the environment or the health of other people).

Can anybody paraphrase all this to my understanding?

President George hasn't been making all the best decisions lately..
Korea is having a nuke garage sale...
And! My friend who looks like the Messiah is going to dress up as Jesus this Halloween.

I predict this world won't last for up to 1000 more years..(or less)

And the problem with this?

We won't be there to presense the apocalipsis.

You could always try, you know, THINKING about it. You might find that, crazily enough, that method works.

Sorry, I'm just lazy! (flawful human characteristic)

What would your world peace/resolution plan be if you're the president?

I just believe that anime is hindering people for some unexplainable reason.
