I agree with you to an extent, there are going to be retards at any elo.
The thing with plat is that players at that level seem to be overly into thinking they're high elo and thus don't make mistakes when in reality they do, but a lot of people seem to assume others are retarded just simply due to having 2 different ideas for how to play out a certain scenario, when both strategies can have the same outcome if both people follow through with it.
That's not to say that every decision is a good decision because they're not it's just try to understand why they made the decision and think if you can come up with a more efficient decision in a short amount of time and communicate without calling them retarded (even if they are).
Soloq can be stressful because of disagreements and egos especially around this level, and honestly I lose quite a few games for shittalking when I shouldn't.
You don't want to make soloq a chore or it's going to be a hell of a lot more annoying and you won't be able to make rational desicions while tilting due to retards.
Even if you're supposedly more skilled than the people in your elo I don't think you should look down on them and completely disregard every idea they have because as retarded as they may be they might know something about this game that you don't.
In other news you nerds should give me a few champs to learn
