      One could argue that dumb implies lower taste. A smarty seeks conversation, a dummy seeks fights. Consider popular videogames.

        i think what you call “dumb” is what i call “angry”. people today are hella angry, yeah. which i guess is a particular thing of modern times and used to be different in the medieval ages, say. anger is not the normal state of humans in general. people nowadays are angry about a lot of things because of stimulus overload, IMHO.
