i think there is an instinct to get angry at people who are very stupid, because such people easily pose a threat to the community. imagine a person sets things on fire just through their immense stupidity; getting angry at such a person before-hand is an attempt to make them shut up and be quiet.

    That's a catch 22. Only a stupid person would get angry at someone for being stupid, because a smart person would understand that the stupid person doesn't understand what they're doing and take the appropriate safety measures with kindness.

    Now the real danger to a community is the person that thinks they're getting angry because other people are stupid.

    Anger is the behaviour of fools.
