I know many very intelligent, talented people. People who will go much further in the world than I will and will achieve much greater things. However I'd say the majority of people are ignorant, mindless automatons that all need a fucking good slap and a vasectomy.
For aslong as their groups like the KKK, Neo-nazis, God Hates Fags, Islamist extremists, Scientologists, Fundamentalist Anti-Evolutionary Christians etc. etc. humanity will never progress, and it saddens me. Unfortunately the world has got to the stage where idiots can voice their misguided opinions and even bigger idiots will follow them, and there's nothing we can really do to stop it.
