¿Y si el mayor peligro para nuestra sociedad no fuera la maldad, sino la estupidez?

La alarmante teoría de Dietrich Bonhoeffer que explica el mundo de hoy.

La Teoría de la Estupidez de Bonhoeffer:
El peligro silencioso
Durante los años más oscuros de la Alemania nazi, el teólogo y pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer reflexionó desde su celda sobre cómo una sociedad culta y moderna había caído en la barbarie colectiva.

Su conclusión fue revolucionaria y alarmante:
la estupidez es un enemigo del bien mucho más peligroso que la maldad misma.

👉 ¿Por qué es más peligrosa que la maldad?
Contra la maldad se puede luchar:
se puede denunciar, combatir e incluso legislar en su contra.
El malvado, en el fondo, suele tener conciencia de que está rompiendo las reglas.

Con la estupidez, en cambio, estamos completamente indefensos.
La persona dominada por ella es impermeable a los argumentos lógicos y a los hechos objetivos.
Si se le presentan pruebas que contradicen sus dogmas, simplemente las ignora o las tacha de irrelevantes.
Al sentirse completamente segura de sí misma, se vuelve agresiva y sumamente peligrosa al ser confrontada.

No es un defecto intelectual, sino moral
Bonhoeffer aclaró que esto no tiene nada que ver con el coeficiente intelectual o el nivel educativo. Existen mentes brillantes que operan bajo una profunda estupidez y personas sencillas que desbordan sabiduría moral.
La estupidez ocurre cuando un individuo renuncia voluntariamente a su capacidad de juicio propio.

👉 El contagio social y el rol del poder
Para el pensador, la estupidez es un fenómeno sociológico.
Observó que el ascenso de una fuerte estructura de poder (política o religiosa) infecta de estupidez a gran parte de la población.
Al integrarse a un grupo o adoptar ciegamente una ideología, el individuo sacrifica su independencia interior.

En este estado, la persona ya no piensa por sí misma:
se convierte en un repetidor de eslóganes, consignas y narrativas prefabricadas.
Al delegar su conciencia al colectivo, se transforma en una herramienta dócil capaz de cometer o justificar las mayores atrocidades sin experimentar remordimiento alguno.

👉 La conclusión de Bonhoeffer
La estupidez no se cura con más instrucción o datos, sino con un acto de liberación interna y coraje moral.
Hasta que el individuo no recupere la valentía de examinar sus ideas de forma autónoma y de tolerar la incomodidad de contradecir a su propio grupo, seguirá atrapado en este peligroso letargo.

@JerryScherzinge Thanks Jerry! Always knew there would be very little to argue about when you were on the game!

For the 1st time in 28 years I will not be headed into fall workouts

I’ve had to wait until things were finally over to put out a statement on everything that happened.

I have posted my thoughts on the matter on the Original/unofficial Pside Men’s Basketball Facebook page

@Mr__231 Appreciate you Dom—You were there at the very beginning when we were trying to get it all started!

I’m becoming convinced that the only form of wealth that matters later in life is having adult children who enjoy spending time with you.

[Luke Reigel @LukeReigel]

Quick stop at the best ballpark in America on our way to take the youngest to his job in DC!! Oh yeah—Raise the Jolly Roger!

[Luke Reigel @LukeReigel]

This sums up being a Pirates fan better than I ever could.

[Dan Hopper @DanHoppOPS]

I’m pretty immune to most forms of Pirates heartbreak but them landing the miracle best pitcher on earth and him morphing into a decent 5 inning starter is a new one

[Luke Reigel @LukeReigel]

We both parred one of the most iconic holes in Wisconsin today!

(Don’t ask about the other 17!)

[Luke Reigel @LukeReigel]

Great day on the links today with Carthage AD, Ryan Kane!

Cannot wait to see all the great things they have going on there this fall and winter!!

Sometimes this world wears you out and leaves you cynical … and then you see a moment like this and realize there will always be more good than bad.

What is the role of the General Manager in college basketball. I explain no BS just the facts.

[Luke Reigel @LukeReigel]

@DRock_18 Really appreciate that—and unfortunately you do know well—thanks Derek!

[Luke Reigel @LukeReigel]

Appreciate you Connor 👊— and everyone else that has reached out

Haven’t been able to comment on this ordeal yet, but will.

Hopefully soon.

[Connor Voelker @connor_voelker]

The most successful, accomplished coach at UW-Parkside, and if they won't celebrate you. Then I will.

Grateful for the opportunity you gave me 2 years ago, and will be forever indebted and loyal to you for that. Nobody accomplished more with less, and in spite of the situation.

[Luke Reigel @LukeReigel]

@Mr__231 Thank you so much Dom! You were there when it all started so that means a lot!!

[Luke Reigel @LukeReigel]

@DanSchumacherAD Thanks Dan!

[Luke Reigel @LukeReigel]

@Salvatoresixer Thank you Coach!

[Luke Reigel @LukeReigel]

@gnephew Thank you Gary!

[Luke Reigel @LukeReigel]

@josiah3palmer I’d say I was the fortunate one—Loyalty is a rare thing these days and having the opportunity to coach a AC guard for 6 years is special!
