I am an Idiot.

I know I am an Idiot. I know I know very little.
Yet, how are there people still dumber than me?
What drives them to ignore science and facts?
What makes them desire to be proud of ignorance?

Is it fear of not knowing the unknown?
Is it bragging rights among other idiots?
Is there a reward for promoting ignorance?

I just don’t grok it.
But then again.. I am an Idiot.
