Stupid Society

An uncanny parallel to reality.

Imagine that you're a highly-intelligent person surrounded by those below you around the clock. It'd be a pain always feeling as if you have to correct everyone anytime they open their mouth. But your corrections don't get through their concrete, Neanderthal skulls because they're just that idiotic. It's impossible to teach these slobbering subhumans, so might as well quit, right? No. You have an urge, an insatiable desire, to change the world for the better, not just for you, but for the future. You want to ensure that we don't all kill ourselves 20 years from now with a nuclear winter all because two countries got into a feud over some moronic conflict. But no matter how much you preach the word of intelligence to those around you, they just make the same mistakes over and over, day in and day out, time and time again, up to the point where you just don't want to live any longer. We would say "just stop caring about those morons and their numerous mistakes", but that's the problem in the first place. You can't stop caring now, and you never might.

In media, Stupid Society isn't limited to just this. It can be any instance where the majority of society is just plain stupid. It spawns many other UnTrashes that are related to people's idiocy, such as Lulzy Disguise and Figuratively Blind People, and allows UnTrashes like The Singular Smart One to be possible.
