As everyone knew, there was one ironclad rule: "Never try to reason with an idiot, because they'll find a way to drag your IQ down to their level, then use their abundant experience to defeat you!"
Still, there was something wrong with that saying. Did encountering an idiot mean you had to give in on everything? Not necessarily...
A certain famous person had once said: "Use magic to defeat magic!"
So, when you wanted to settle things with an idiot, all you had to do was send a few more idiots their way while they were trying to lower your IQ. That way, they would naturally use their abundant experience to drag "everyone" down to the same level. At that point, just think about who this "everyone" around them was—they were all idiots you had sent over! Thus—
When one idiot activated an IQ-reduction BUFF, the idiots around them whose IQ had dropped would also be forced to unleash their own IQ-reduction BUFFs. This formed a cycle: A lowered B's IQ, B lowered C's, C lowered A's, then the dumbed-down A continued lowering B's, B continued lowering C's... Just think about it—what a beautifully perfect IQ-reduction loop...
As long as you reduced an idiot's IQ until they were completely unable to refute you, wouldn't defeating them be easy? Don't think this was an exaggeration. Why were chess masters unwilling to play against terrible players? Wasn't it because they feared their chess skills would be assimilated by those terrible players?
Why did so many terrible players only get worse the more they played? Simple—because they could only find equally terrible players to play against. See? Didn't that form the IQ-reduction loop he had just described?
If that still wasn't easy enough to understand, then here was an even simpler, more straightforward
