Examining Cultures of Low Intellect

     Why are people of low intellect more likely to resort to violence to solve a problem than someone with a solid awareness of themselves and the world around them? When one encounters a situation that requires action in order to solve it, a person is limited by what skills they have. Through an average person's life they acquire insights into how the world works, ideas that can help one logically weigh the pros and cons of a situation or compare the attributes of two or more things.

      When one is brought up in a culture that does not highly value intellect, and/or holds false beliefs such as: to rush to anger or violence is a strength, the individual will likely have these traits hard-wired in their brain after years of this falseness being repeated. When one fails to acquire abilities to reason they are left with little in their arsenal to use when a situation requires a logical analyzation. By default, everyone has a mouth and two fists (save for a defect or injury). When a person of low intellect "reaches" into their "bag", the skills that they are capable of using, the contents are few. Some sort of ability to reason may be present but it is likely a deformed sort of thing, twisted due to growing up in a backwards culture.

      What does one such as this do when their logic fails, when others around them do not understand basic logic, when logic is thought to be effeminate, that using fists is believed to be a quality of personal strength, and to "beat someone's ass" is perhaps thought of as the highest good? One such as this is inclined to side with anger and/or violence. When a person lacks the skills to reason, all that is left to use is their mouth and the rest of their body. This is one reason why uneducated people often resort to violence; this is why they also bear more unwanted children that they cannot afford. They are, for the most part, limited to the physical, disconnected from a true, unique personality. This is because they are left with little more than the physical when they lack the skills to reason. They have an overwhelming influence from stupid family and friends in so many cases, and so they remain stupid themselves, praising stupid people's false-virtues. They become involved in chaos, a mirror of the disorder of their mind. They are more likely to go to prison, become involved in unnecessary struggles, surround themselves with low level people, and fail to raise their children properly due to ignorance and a lack of time for each- too many children to focus on and too little money to support them, thus creating a new generation of the same sort of idiots.
