Stupid is too harsh. They could be as intelegent as you or me. but... they are told propaganda/marketing, the thing is made to hide its rough edges and the hype from the propaganda machine puts people in a hazey mindset where its hard to think.

They are certainly pretty stupid if they are as intelligent as me.

I think the average person is not very smart, especially considering the USA, Russia, China, and India are large parts of the world population. Now realize that half of everyone below median intellect is even dumber than that. The fact that propaganda and hype are highly effective to start with is evidence of our lacking capabilities as a species.
