I often have this sinking feeling that a very large proportion of the
human population are just idiots, and that the limits to their ignorance
have yet to be found.

Is "ignorance" (mere lack of knowledge) what you really mean here, rather
than "stupidity" (inability to make sense of knowledge)?

All of the above. There are a number of pejoratives that apply, IMO.
However, one of the things that offends me the most are people who are NOT
stupid, but who remain willfully ignorant. They're the people I
characterize as "idiots", and they seem to make up the bulk of the
population. There's nothing wrong with their brain; they just choose not to
use it.
