Do you believe that there are only two types of people in this world?

I think it is too simple to think of people this way, because nobody is totally wise or totally foolish. A wise person can still be taken advantage of, because anyone can have a weak moment and be deceived by someone else. A person can have other defences, without being wise. They may be protected from exploitation simpy because they fear, distrust or oppose other people's views. A wise person may use their knowledge only for good purposes, and fools can trick other people too.

classifying people as fools and wise, i dont think it works. first of all, how about those that get fooled but in other aspects are wise? how will classify that? only foolish, ignorant, totally biased people classify people as such. too bad, where do they consider themselves?

hi there, if the wises take advantage of the fools, it means they are not wise. i think there are two types of people in the world. the conscious people, and the unconscious people. that's not a fix type, but rather a dynamic type. people can change. the unconscious can be the conscious and vice versa.

Only two kinds of people would make for a narrow world. Saying that all wise people take advantage of all fools is well just is not true. Additionally, many people are wise in some areas and total fools in others. So one could be wise and a fool about certain things, so that would mean that some people are not one or the other but both! I think that being wise many times come with age. The more experiences you encounter, good or bad, makes you wiser.
