From Forward Kentucky: Dear Kentuckians: Don't be stupid
This is the second in a five(?)-part series laying out some facts and opinions about Kentuckians and the COVID-19 epidemic. You can read the first article here.
Calling out the Stupid
I regularly read a web site called “Zandar Versus the Stupid.” It is written by a fellow Kentuckian, and is a pretty direct look at “the stupid” in the world. The site’s tagline reads, “Needless to say there’s a lot of Stupid out there when we need solutions. Dangerous levels of Stupid. Into the fray, dear Reader. Tray tables, crash helmets, arms inside blog at all times.” (Yes, I enjoy the tone of the site as well as the content.)
Normally, I tend not to call policies and actions “stupid,” and certainly not people. Irresponsible, illogical, uninformed – these are the words I often fall back on.
