True, but that is hardly relevant here.

I know from experience that stupid people rapidly become hostile, abusive, and
emotional in debates, because they have only their emotions upon which to base
their behavior (not having much of an intellect by definition). The more
stupid they are, the more abusive, hostile, and emotional they become. Smart
people do not have this handicap and so do not show this behavior,
particularly since intellect is much more useful than emotion in debate and
thus rarely leads to frustration.
