Actually, you  can fix  stupid.  (Education)  Getting past that, this is how so many NFL players lose their millions in a few years  after retirement.

 

Education can fix ignorance, not stupidity. Ignorance is a correctable condition. Stupidity unfortunately is a chronic condition.

 According  to MWebster,  ((there are multiple definitions of both words, but I cannot find your explanation as one of them)  Stupid: given to unintelligent decisions or acts : acting in an unintelligent or careless manner.  That does not mean it can't  be fixed.  Can you improve intelligence?  Yes.   You can become smarter by acquiring useful, widely applicable cognitive skills, such as logical reasoning, critical thinking etc..  I am an education professor--if you are implying that stupid means "cognitive inability" then I have not seen that definition attributed to "stupid".

Stupidity is a synonym for unintelligence. Unintelligence literally means a lack of intelligence. Intelligence means the ability to acquire knowledge and/or skills. Add it all up...
