Stupidity is More Dangerous Than Evil

Stupidity is More Dangerous Than Evil
In this video, we explore why stupidity is more dangerous than evil, as famously argued by Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the German pastor and anti-Nazi dissident. Bonhoeffer believed that while evil can be confronted and defeated, stupidity spreads silently, making people blind to truth and immune to logic. But why did he see stupidity as not just an intellectual failure but a moral and social crisis?

We’ll break down Bonhoeffer’s insights, examining how blind obedience, groupthink, and propaganda can lead individuals and societies to surrender their critical thinking and intellectual independence. From the rise of the Nazi regime to modern-day examples, we’ll uncover how social manipulation thrives on the stupidity of the masses.
