What automatically makes you think people are idiots?

For me it’s:

people who think that Michael Jackson isn’t a pedophile.

people who say things like “Londanistan” “Bradfordistan”

People who say “If the Holocaust is real, why do the tattoo numbers only go up to 5 digits”

You write a long list of things you think make people idiots but can’t spell a simple word like disgusting. When this is pointed out to you, it goes completely over your head. When the penny finally drops, your response is to just be plain rude. You seem an utter delight.

Just fyi, you also said you thought ‘People who have no concept of how to use proper grammar’ were also idiots but you don’t seem to have grasped the concept of a full stop….. or, judging by the above, a question mark.

Ahh chill yer beans.

People are dying and our tax is paying for it. I’m trying to help stop that! If the news reports turn out to be true, then something is about to go down with Iran, lots of innocent people on both sides will die, again I’d like that to not happen.

How does posting on a forum help stop that exactly?

True to form mumsnet has immediately deleted my post for criticising a country!

Every post online helps form opinion, why else would my posts about criticising a certain country keep getting deleted?

Literally the post you’ve just replied to me on has been deleted!

Anyway, I’m extremely opinionated in the topic and love to post about it, so for me it’s cathartic, but also interesting to see media censorship in real time happening.

I think you’re delusional if you believe your posts on a forum will make any impact or difference in the real world.

You can believe what you want, but posting on here isn’t going to change a thing.

If it’s the post I’m thinking of, I’m glad anti semitism isn’t allowed here.

When you stated ‘I like Hamas’ and denied the rapes of October 7th happened yes, you definitely helped me form an opinion.

JonesTown · 25/02/2026 18:14

@OneWittyGuide

It is illegal to publicly support a proscribed terrorist organisation, which Hamas is.

SunConure · 11/05/2026 22:03

Anti vaxxers. People who say “why do vegetarians eat meat substitutes” I mean it’s so freaking obvious to anyone with half a brain. People who think reform uk will keep the NHS. People who make a huge fuss about Gaza while ignoring 24 other major incidences of genocide, conflict, human trafficking and famine in Africa etc. People who virtue signal (see, Gaza), anyone who mentions the illuminati or other dumb conspiracy theories. People who ignore or ridicule science because they don’t understand it, then when they get cancer they suddenly start trusting doctors and scientists.

WithLoveFromMyselfToYourself · 11/05/2026 22:08

Conspiracy theorists
People who say they are not religious but they are “spiritual”
People who overshare and have tantrums on Facebook

But overhearing is often a symptom of neuro diversity - do you think that all neurodiverse people are idiots.

The fact people have not simply slotted into a religion but have found a separate path, one which satisfies a need that’s has existed within humanity for 10s of millennia should indicate to you those people are capable of deep thinking. Some of the most intelligent people I know are spiritual not religious

AgnesMcDoo · 11/05/2026 22:35

people who vote SNP or Reform

anti vaxxers

flat earthers

people who think googling is ‘research’

I think they meant oversharing on Facebook specifically. I just like other people's stuff on Facebook and I'm ND.

ItsJustMeMyself · 12/05/2026 05:53

People who believe whatever the news or the NHS tells them to believe and act on this third party information to their own (and others) detriment.

People who, when faced with facts that challenge their beliefs, stubbornly reject facts to protect their fragile sense of ego.

People who envy others while doing nothing to change their own position.

People who look down on those who look up to God.

Dinggirl · 12/05/2026 05:59

WhatAreYouDoingSundayBaby · 05/02/2026 16:54

People who are proud to say they've never read a book.

Likewise people who are proud that they are bad at maths....I'm bad at maths, but I'm certainly not proud of it

MynameisnotJohn · 12/05/2026 06:21

People who have affairs with married men.
Anyone with neck and face tattoos.
Religious people who have never questioned their religion.
Anyone who has a BBL.

notatinydancer · 12/05/2026 06:23

People who think you can change sex.
Poor grammar, particularly ‘would of’
Poor general knowledge.
Anti Vaxxers.
People who think women wearing a short skirt is asking for it.

MynameisnotJohn · 12/05/2026 06:28

Anyone who automatically hates law enforcement officials. Bailiffs, traffic wardens, Police etc. I always want to ask them to give it five minutes thought and conclude if they want to live in a world where there is no enforcement of anything. Idiots.
‘River to the sea’. Idiots.
