"People are retarded." --Osho
All people are idiots, love all of them, never make anyone a leader. So far people seem to be mentally the most inferior of all species on Earth, the only thing stupider than people are feminists and capitalists (which is basically the same thing). Humans possess high level of intelligence which allows them to be extremely stupid, much more than other organisms can dream of -- just like playing the worst chess moves requires deep understanding of chess, behaving in most stupid ways possible requires an intellect capable of deducing what is indeed the most stupid thing to do at any given time -- at this humans excel.
Remember: a cover mostly says just enough about the book.
