| Answer: |
The passage suggests that stupidity has a considerable negative impact on society. It implies that stupidity can be destructive as it consumes "the reserves of energy". It also hints at the pervasiveness of stupidity, referring to its "deployment towards totality", implying that it impacts all aspects of society and manipulates the intelligence to an absolute degree. The society that defends itself cannot be named as such, suggesting a detrimental effect of stupidity on societal structure and functioning. |
