Dumb people don't like smart people, except when they respect them. They especially don't like smart people who are frank and tell them when they are wrong. They prefer someone who lies to them so they don't have to face the loss of ego due to being incorrect, such as the lead developer of Sia. Dumb people like AmericanPegasus have huge egos, whereas at the top where I am it is quite serene. The dumb people blame their huge egos on the ego of the smart person, because they are too dumb (foolish pride combined with the Dunning-Kruger syndrome) to recognize that is their own ego that is causing them to project it. I see it all the time. I just sigh. Not my problem, it is yours. Sigh.
