      Exploring the parallels between 21st-century social media behaviors and Renaissance humanist rhetoric, the book delves into how contemporary performances of stupidity reflect historical rhetorical experiments. It examines the evolution of humanist thought and its influence on modern communication, highlighting the enduring impact of these ideas on today's digital interactions. Through this lens, the author offers a critical analysis of how past and present dialogues shape our understanding of intelligence and discourse in the social media age.
