Stupidity is a transcendent, supranational, and intercultural quality that resides in the five continents of the planet and in the one hundred and ninety-two member states of the UN. It plays a catalytic role in all manifestations of human activity: in politics, science, religion, in social, public, and private life. With its constant presence and its catalytic influence on the actions and deeds of individuals and nations, it ends up shaping this historical becoming of humanity. Something that becomes even more apparent if we consider that, in the eternal struggle between intelligence and stupidity, apart from the world of born and educated fools, there is almost no intelligent person who has not committed some of the so-called "stupidities" in their life.

All these are the subject of the original and subversive satirical treatise by Theodore Karzis, where, through a kind of "history of stupidity," the comic-tragic carnival of the modern world is highlighted and paraded.
