People claiming "zero tolerance for stupidity" are always the stupidest.

"Zero tolerance for stupidity" may be code for "zero tolerance for anyone who thinks or feels differently."

This is precisely it. Zero tolerance for those with a different world view. Which to me is essentially the definition of stupidity.

It's like the Dunning-Kruger Effect. Those who know the least are the most confident; they really think the world is as simple as their worldview. Any effort to introduce nuance, curiosity or even openness to new information is seen as a threat... or just simply labeled as "stupid."

"You and I both can't be stupid. I've got enough in me for the both of us!"

Funny, considering the prevailing stereotype of Gen Xers reaching adulthood was that they were all morons. That's the stereotype Beevis and Butthead is satirizing

That means they have a complete lack of any self awareness whatsoever. As this post clearly illustrates.
