I finally get it. The same set Venn diagram degenerates to either set, so there is a single circle. It took me a while.

1. Reread carefully what I wrote, for comprehension.
2. Learn how to distinguish stupidity and evil. This is very important.
3. Use deductive reasoning. The people doing the most damage, ca. MTG, are almost by definition, not “stupid.”

I’m not convinced & I’m sticking to my position. MTG’s evil as shit, but in practical matters more clever than either of us. Don’t put too much stock in strong formal education: it has its uses i.e. Physics lab, the operating room, the courtroom, but those are not the bulk of societal activities.
