Re:Stupidity is a specific cognitive failing by acituan on Monday August 09, 2021 @09:16AM (#28116362)
Not exclusively. It is also a very Socratic perspective (which happens to be a contemporary to Buddha).

Buddhist interpretation of ignorance overlaps more with Socratic interpretation than our current use of the word. It is not a mere lack of knowledge in “propositions”. It is an existential state. If you think about it framing problems are also ignorance problems; ignoring relevant information/perspectives/action in our problem formulations.
