Most of what I've learned about social media is that trying to argue with someone is akin to arguing with a wall. It doesn't matter if you went to college and are a subject matter expert. There's always someone who will be the poster child for the Dunning-Kruger effect. Removing Facebook and Instagram from my life was one of the better decisions I've made.

It kinda sucks when people you’re close to check most of these boxes. The issue I’ve learned is that stupidity never knows they’re stupid. They refuse to learn and realize that what they do is quite “stupid”. It’s a losing battle trying to help these people.

Pretty sure almost everyone fits into at least one category on this list. This includes You, the Author, and even Myself!

Mama said: "stupid is as stupid does"

Yeah, the "binary-issue" people are annoying... everything is about religion/spirituality.... or everything is about race.... or everything is about politics. Like everyone else, I have my own beliefs within each of those three categories, and sometimes, someone will be making a comment from the side that I'm on... _and it's STILL annoying._ *Not everything is about 'left-v-right'.*

Now I'm scared to comment. But the video was entertaining and true-ish. So, my comment is just to show support to the channel. 👍❤

I don't know who you are, but you hit so many nails on the head. Thank you for bringing sanity to the internet.

This happens not only on social media but also at work, home, everywhere.

Thanks for this insightful video. It's both amusing and thought-provoking to see these 20 profiles dissected. While some are undeniably irritating, it's a reminder of the diverse personalities we encounter online. The 'Keyboard Warrior' and 'Anti-Advertiser' stood out for me. Navigating these interactions with empathy and understanding is crucial, even when faced with negativity. Your humorous take on 'Mr. Laughter' was a great way to wrap up the list. Keep up the excellent work in shedding light on such relatable aspects of the online world. Looking forward to more engaging content from you!

I agree that Mister Laughter is the worst because he's obviously evil, but the Attention Seeker is the most annoying.

I've been looking for a video with an analysis like this! Great job....

Oh lord, imma go get smarter

Good job analyzing this and charting it. We see these characters every day, and having it on a chart helps with recognizing and dealing with it.

Taking drugs, smoking, alcohol abuse, spending money to impress yourself.

Great video, I just found the channel today! Already watch your recommend ones. Food for my brain.

Your videos are pure gold man. Keep up the good work! Your doing grate!

I'm "Mister Serious" due to Asperger's I at least recognize that I often lack an ability to see certain things as funny. I almost need slapstick, puns, or irony to see humor.

Did we make it? Did we make it? Did we make it? 😀

My great-grandmother always said "Fools names and Fools faces are always seen in public places.

Thanks so much for the opportunity to release my anger...but I'm good.

I'm laughing so hard I had to rewind three times now. Crucial 😂. Bless this channel

The everything is politics is my pick. Thanks for the video 😂

I'm checking myself here.

You think the worst is Mr. Laughter? You couldn't be more wrong. lmfao. (sarcasm).

I actually enjoy interacting with trolls who explore an unpopular or creative point of view, especially if they do so respectfully.

Wow, I think that I know or am related to at least one person who fits every single one of those categories...And guilty of one or two. Informative and entertaining video!

Oh gawd, the functional illiterate...this is why I clarify a lot of things every time I post something that might be seen or read incorrectly. Ugh!

The religious/political and the monothematic are the worst. The are both stuck with one single idea in their head and every conversation leads to that topic. It's like "hey, have you heard that there is going to be a new building in our neighbourhood?" And they go like "yeah, it's gonna have 6 floors, just like the 6 favourite ingredients I use to cook my food" and the go talking about food for the rest of the conversation, if that's their monotheme, of course. And the political religious attribute EVERYTHING to God or the current president. FML.

OMG!! I was laughing my head off listening to this. Because its SO TRUE🤣🤣

I know this is not comedy but I have never laughed so freely thank you

The anti-capitalist subject verge into the Dunning Kruger effect. Research is 101 😂😂😂

13 functional illiterate is a synonym for Politician in much of Europe.

Thank you for Sharing this video!!! I get all 20 of these people making comments on my KZfaq Channel because they look at my 30-60 KZfaq Short videos and then without researching the entire context of the KZfaq Short in which I used my long-form content to make crazy ass comments without proper context. It amazes me how Millennials and Gen Z have been totally disabled by Social Media Platforms and have absolutely no problem making comments on videos in which they have no Professional or Personal Experience in but tell me I don't know what the hell I am talking about!!! Humans are very interesting because so many of them don't have a life outside of the Internet and Social Media Platforms!!!

Oh, boy! I recognize myself in all 20 categories! What am I? Ah! I'm being sarcastic, so this puts me in the "Mr. Laughter" category. I guess this makes me the worst of them all - "The King of Stupidity". Thanks, now I know who I am!

The progression airy posing. Talk about priceless.

Okay so to answer the question at the end I'm still laughing so none absolutely none.. thank you though thank you

Mr Laughter as the top. Excellent choice, thanks. The rest, I can't honestly say I've not been guilty of from time to time.

Thank you! I want to keep the URL and share it with people who fit into one, some, or many of the above categories. You have a good day too!

Very well done video!🙂 However, pointing out that everyone should have right to their own opinion in a video about stupidity is not ideal. Everyone should have access to the relevant information/facts. Suppose you're a girl (I don't know if you are or not), and I see 10 guys coming out of your apartment - I can have all kinds of opinions. You can be a language instructor, a ballet instructor, a prostitute or whatever. But people can have false opinions about you, even though they might not know you. The same with "Do you think we will ever go to the Moon?" - "naaah, not in a thousand years" (there were people who were saying this)... "do you study rockets?" - "no" - "what do you know about space travel?" - "not that much" - "then what do you base your opinion on?" Instead of saying "I don't have enough information to give you an answer. It's not my field. I don't know. " people have "right to their own opinion" - you see it *everywhere* on social media, and in real life, and it hurts society no end. Everyone blabbing all the time senselessly about subjects they have no idea how they work or interconnect. Commenting senselessly under scientific-oriented videos without being trained in a given field. I seriously believe this way of thinking is more dangerous than wars, and it holds society back. Because out of it stems conflict, wars, backward thinking, stupidity, and so on. People need education and demonstration of facts in the terms they understand, not the terms you think they understand. People come from different environments, backgrounds, families, different cultures and subcultures - some of them don't have access to good education, no wonder they are considered "stupid". They have ignorant parents, and they usually grow up to be ignorant, unless someone/something took them out of that crappy situation. Some of them might come from rich families, and then they usually grow up arrogant, self-centered, self-important, egotistical, and think they know everything. Because they've been brought up with "everyone should have right to their own opinion". Conditioning plays a crucial part in developing one's value system, behavior, outlook, lifestyle, thinking. Once we start bringing up kids with a value system that they should first examine something using scientific method and then give an *informed* assessment, and even better share the findings about something they've studied, you'll start to see a tremendous social progress on Earth. TL;DR - Ability to say "I don't know" is what's missing. If you don't understand what I'm trying to say, I recommend watching some of Jacque Fresco's lectures.

An interesting video and thanks for posting it as I learned some new things.

Excellent job in categorizing the types of stupidity. Social media has made us much more aware of them!

I'm 100% sure there will be people who disagree with this video, because they think they're smarter than you.

I've been several of these categories in the past, lol 😅 Thank God I'm now introspective enough to mature.

Purists are infuriating. They try to end any conversation, with their opinion being obviously the final word on a matter-their word.

I've been an Oversharer and a Grammar Nazi, but I've gotten better. Perhaps this video will inspire me to do better still.

I don't know. Just found this channel, with the Why stupid people think they are Smart video. Made me laugh like crazy. Looking forward is more content

Thanks for this video. On twitter, I mute most of these profiles and block the trolls . I don't mind the oversharer nor the ones who post on a single theme, however someone who exchanges with me and sounds like a timewaster, I block. My personal profile is I hope decent but probably boring to most people.

The gullible one = everyone who gets their news from tv.

I fall into the anti-capitalist category but I don’t bitch about it online. I just live a minimalist lifestyle quietly

The gullible one I find most dangerous (outside the internet.) The others can be ignored.

im really disapointed, i dident find my profile and i think am stupid. this wwas one of the best vidios i have seen in a long time(love it)

Nice and savage at the same time 😂

Interesting and hilarious 😂!

I came to this conversation to evaluate my own position in the matrix. I don't see myself exactly fitting any one, though I can detect that my replies sometimes may reflect shades of a few of them. For background, I typically make simple responses sharing my appreciation of the post a "Friend" makes by sharing the good memories the post inspires, or through similar confirmation of the value I find in the post. In contrast, I sometimes respond (only to people I truly care about, not everyone who shares the view) to extremist political posts by pointing out the logical fallacies it contains, or I offer an "inverted" perspective (change name from a right-wing hero to a left-wing hero, or inverse, with all other facts unchanged) to point out the bias I detect. In my mind, I'm offering critical thinking skills or methods to evaluate judgments for validity, but I admit that some may interpret my comments as ego driven. The bottom line: Where do I fit into this matrix? I guess I'll go through the video at least once more, and maybe check a few more such offerings, if I can find any others. Regardless of what I discover, thanks to the content creator for sharing the information.

Yikes - time for some self reflection on my part: I have fit into some of these molds far too often.

So many things makes so much more sense now. Gathering the pieces falling together.

😆😆 - I'm sorry.. I had to do it. great video though, TY

As a Professional Troll, I focus mainly on local and country politicians and their statements and the comments of what I call "BFF's" (Blind Faith Followers of a particular Party). There is a fantastic and measurable correlation between the number of stupid and utterly stupid comments by said followers and the Politicians they are in love with. The main difference between a professional Troll and a "wanna be" is a Professional Troll will NEVER reply to a comment made about the Trolls comment.

I know a few amd also I may be one maybe but I learned about a few I didn’t lnew about, so thanks.

Well. A lot say comment on here! First. I take it you made this video with sarcasm and irony in mind in the background?! [wink emoji] (as it turned out i can not use emoji's here). Second thing. You are all inclusive here I see. No one left out! [laugh emoji] Third. I wonder about the reason of you making this video. Is it maybe you get a bit fed up with indecencies yourself? (as is completely logical) This one also links back to the first thing. So, I don't know whether it was intended this way, but I can see both the humor and the message in this video! If intended, well done! I enjoyed it! [ flat-hands--placed-on-top-of-each-other-in-front-of chest-emoji] If not, I still enjoyed it...

😂😂😂😂 Loved this 😂😂😂😂 ✔️

As a keyboard warrior I totally agree with your video. LOL Ooops, am I already a king of stupid because of this LOL sign ? JJ Just Joking :)

While several things on this list do represent stupidity a lot of these are simply pet peeves, not stupidity

This is so interesting!❤

WHAAAAT !!!!! (haha just kidding, thx.)

Recently pointed out a spelling mistake on KZfaq. Oops!

Wonder if anyone who watched the video never seen themselves in at least one box.

A few time ago I had one functional illiterate insult me simply because I said “art is not simply subjective”, and for some reason she interpreted this message as if I said that the art on the page sucked. She then proceeded to check my page and insult my art as well, and this according to her, was a proof that “art is always subjective”. Since she decided my art suck, art must be subjective and therefore we keep thousands of artworks in museums just for “subjective” But what puzzled me is that she read my comment as an insult toward her artwork, despite I never said that. 😂 You are wrong by the way, you can use the 😂 emoji on KZfaq ahahahah

The acting out make sense for a while now. I might have been rude to some of these people online.

What really annoys me every time is the opposite of the grammar-nazi. Whenever people make mistakes on purpose and think it is funny to write like that.

The "Anti Religionist" bugs me because I am also religious. I love God my own self. But some make Religion look inappropriate and refuse to deal with whatever the subject matter is. I do realize it is possible the world is coming to and end at some point. However they doesn't mean we should stop discussing important issues. Especially moral ones when we might assist others or other ways of showing our love for mankind and God.

Probably the over-sharer and the attention getter are the worst for me. These types of people usually have nothing to offer anybody.

In the UK, we can have a news article about the inflated price of baked beans. One or more comments will say: “Brexiteers have broken Britain” I would like to promote this behaviour to Emperor of Stupid.

Great video, bro... I am not even feel annoyed. I just feel sorry for those 20 categories' dude. (Am expecting some Nazis)

Dammit... More offenses are taken in life than are given.

haha nice 😂

I think hardline religious people & hardline atheists belong in the same category.

I like to troll all the other types.

I'm stupid sometimes.

I’m probably kinda stupid. But I’m working on it.

Im just here for the art

I personally can fit my sell into Trollolo category! But everyone should know we all have utterly stupid moments on the internet, it is like growing up. Some want to grow up and some stay the same for long time.

Oh that's hilarious yet more offenses are taking them given or offered.

I enjoy posting and ghosting. After a couple weeks, if need a laugh I will revisit the post and many times all 20, or combinations thereof, will have offered their brand of crap. The threads can go on forever. Sometimes sad, sometimes funny, always entertaining, especially since I never engage with the goons. The way I see it is that my post already stated my point, so why argue with idiots? They’re here for our entertainment.

Examples of #4: Nearly every single person pretending to be trans for views, likes, and clout

I like comments that elicit genuine human interaction. These types you list do not fall into that category. In my day to day life I avoid these types and do not participate in social media platforms. Thanks for the video I’m sure you are immune to comments that are not edifying in any way. I am going to look at the other videos,bye.

I just have a feeling that there still doing some research.

Right now it haves been 5 years since im living in a country in the Balkans where most of the people i know are one or more of these profiles from the video, before that i have spent 5 years living in a Western European country where basically i never met on of these profiles. Im comparing about 50 people from both countries, they come from same fields of education mostly. Supprisingly i find people from art universities too to be very cringe social justice warriors too.

The functionally illiterate sound like the sorts of people that despotic, dictatorial, and totalitarian regimes seem to develop -- and do everything possible to stop them from developing at that point. Let people develop further and they might get self confidence from enterprise, recognize contradictions in official media, and have curiosity about something outside their narrow world of dead-end jobs and stale lives. Really, there is much less difference than you might expect between such supposedly polar opposites as Castro an Pinochet. I have known people who fled both, and they had much the same complaints. This all makes the MAGA world seem ominous.

KZfaq is all I use. I don't have FB Twitter and so on

like a video on the cartooning process....

I'm pretty sure everybody that's on social media from about what 14 on up should probably watch this video.

Are you trying to say Hitler was NOT brought back to life... I can't believe it.... you lie!!! 🤣🤣🤣

I have a type that you forgot to add here and its funny because the creator of this video woukd fall into this category. I call it "The Judge" Think of idubbbz when he did content cop, leafy, moistcritical ect. These people hold the belief that they are not only flawless enough but intelligent enough to critique every other type of person with a level of confidence that shows they think they are omnipotent and probably think they are immune to someone deconstructing their personality flaws. They see themselves as qualified to quantify it too. Like this guy holds the opinion that trolls are only slightly stupid meanwhile a gullible person is extremely stupid its his opinion and yet he presents it as factual

Im alot of these all in one ... I admit it

Okay 3 minutes in my started to read the first comment. In order to debate or argue with someone there has to be attention being paid. I don't see a lot of that on social media. Unless it's children shows football movies maybe Fox News.

I am a little anti-advertiser, but not because of 1 minute, but when the person has a good paying job, does videos for a hobby, have a patreon with 1000+ patreons, monetize his videos which have 1M+ views, have a store with merchandising and STILL leave a 3 minute Skillshare/NordVPN sponsor ad in the middle of the video ... come on! I wasn't even aware the king of stupid existed, I guess I am lucky to never have seen one, seems not only stupid but kind of evil.

17. Adblock.

Luckily my favourite colour is blue 😂🤣🤣🤣😅😅🤣😂

Video games are part of my several past-times, and I have to say that the gaming community is full of very stupid and immature people. Some of these grossly immature people are "adults", some to be in their late 20's and even 30's. This is why I mute the channels, most of the time.
