DAMIAN PENNY IS Fox’s guest weblog today. He leads off with a discussion of a new world trend, which I think should be named “PanIdiotarianism” — in which all the world’s dumb beliefs, from antisemitism to anticapitalism, are merging into one colossal black hole of stupidity. Or as Penny puts it: “the individual idiocies of the world are morphing into a collective force.”

He’s got evidence.
