...the militantly ignorant. Well, what do you think we should do with them?

Euthanasia

Euthanasia
hrm...that might work..

Euthanasia
Too kind, and a waste of resources. With the current wealth of ignorant people, we should put them to work doing hard labor that noone of even moderate intelligence should have to do. Think Oompa-Loompa.

You don't want to know what I'd do with them.

We could keep some of the more attractive ones around for recreational purposes.

AGREED!!!!

Concentration camps. We all know how useless people who don't know the significance of the dates 753 BCE, 509 BCE, 390 BCE, 1204 CE, and 1453 CE are.

*Looks at the dates and quicky relocates to the nearest concentration camp*

(BTW What is their significance? That is if they weren't just random numbers with no significance used to convince people they need to move to the nearest re-education center. :confused: )

Use a meme spread by television.

(753 - founding of rome, 509 - establishment of the roman republic, 390 - sacking of rome by Brennus, 1204 - sacking of Constantinople by crusaders, 1453 - capture of Constantinople by Turks)

use them as cannon fodder like the world's leaders have since time immemorial.

Can I wrap them in bubble wrap and mail them to Abu Dhabi?

I've that the ignorant just like any other dumb animal respond postively to a little kindness...fed them, pet them...teach them not to go do-do on the rug....I say we should love the ignorant

Seperate them from society and insitute a careful breeding program, until you've created a massive, docile, ignorant and unthinking worker class. Then exploit them. Think of how they bred cocker spaniels from wolves, it must be possible with people. Or the common farm pig from the boar. Cows, even. It can be done.

Make sure not to opress them obviously, then even the most docile animals gets uppity. Create a nice, happy, capitalist world for them to live in, and exploit the cheap labour.

Been done.

Been done. Well, yes, it's probably being done now, to us, as we speak. It's still an effective method. I'm thinking something very 1984-esque, as with the proles.

I have a great idea...we can hook up the more uppity of the ignorant to this vast global computer network where they will think they are actually expressing their "important" opinions on current events and such, then we will record everything they are saying for our records...not only that...but a good way to keep them docile is by addicting them to vast amounts of pornography, free online computer games and the like

You'd be militantly ignorant about Italian and Turkish history.

Those are actually very relevant dates to any student of Latin, thank you! *sticks tongue out*

That's no fun...

Can I just skip the meme and throw the television at them?
:p

Yeah, dude... I think Ann Coulter could be trained... once her teeth are removed with a pneumatic hammer.
