Yeah, I hate it when people of higher education call manual laborers stupid because they are not of the same education level. When I call somebody stupid, I am usually referring to either their maturity level (which is really a slang use of stupid) or lack of common sense. Just because you have a college degree doesn't mean you're not stupid (hence the term educated idiot).

Except maybe intelligent folk can achieve qualifications easier in many cases if they so desire. In English the words "Stupid" and "Silly" are used quite often and have no analogy to intelligence. As with a lot in English you must read it in the context and response that it is in, rather than word for word. Regardz Colin J Davies

However, these words are defining a relation of inequality by lowering the stupid/silly "subject", aren't they?

Like any other language, isn't it? ;) As I said to Mr benjymous, I took the opportunity to express myself on this point rather than making a specific comment on his message.
