When you point out to really stupid people specifically why they have conjured something stupid up in their heads, they're not intellectually capable of recognizing that you've just explained their thought-processes to them. This is because they have not a whit of self-awareness.
Stupid people think that if they are to become hip to any one single little lone individual in the whole entire world who has done something peculiar, then this means everyone does it. Stupid people are violent because their brains are primitive.
