That just sounds like philosopher dribble peddled to make sad people feel better.

You can very well know happiness without sadness. It's called ignorance and from what I've heard it's bliss.

It's not about knowing. It's about appreciating.

Most the ignorant people I know are the most angry, miserable people I've ever met, so idk maybe that's bullshit too

Are they ignorant or all their "knowledge" just revolve in being racist and an asshole?, a truly ignorant person would be like a toddler no? Without racism and such

Being a toddler is traumatic! They have no knowledge of the world around them and it's frequently terrifying. Why do you think young children cry so much? Ignorance is scary.
