Should someone's stupidity cause you anger?

[tetrapod]

Why?  Should that be their problem and not yours?

Well, it depends what the issues are. If it's concerning the community or things that are directly affecting me. YES! If not, I wouldn't care.

I see.  What if their stupidity hurt only hurt them but not you?  I seen people getting mad at this.  I'm guilty of this.

No, I wouldn't care. I think you're just mad at the fact that they are stupid. For me, I'm the type that keep to myself so as long as it doesn't pertain to me, it would not get to me at all.

If it only hurts them then I got no problem with it. But when it affects me in some way, you bet I get angry.  Very angry.

No, I'm mad at the physic who scammed the victim but sometimes you do get mad when they just become so gulliable and eleive everything. You just want to do something that will WAKE them up and see the light!

What of their stupidity hurt others but not you?  For example, the parents refuse to seek medical treatments for their children because it conflicts with their world view?

If it's not my parent or anyone related to me, that's their problem.  If it's my parent, than it affects me.

Sounds like a good answer.

That's true when they get into a position of power or when a group of them get together.

That is scary.  What if one day the majority of americans are stupid?  That is what I am afraid of.
