    It has nothing to do with intelligence or stupidity. You can’t fail the way Shapiro fails at thinking being stupid. It’s malice, the cruelty is the point. When you uphold hatred and cruelty above all, logic goes out of the window and then this advanced stupid becomes possible. He is not arriving to a POV from an understanding of a subject. He decides what he wanted his POV to be first, then he uses whatever he has at hand to justify it.
