You have many options - idiot and moron are probably the most common, dumb & dummy are better for a softer more joking blow.
Personally my favorite is "batshit crazy", I adopted it off of pen & teller. When something seems so delusional it seems insane, and you don't have to feel bad for making fun of someone or something for been stupid without their control, since batshit crazy kind of suggests more of willful ignorance IMO.
Also it's really fun to say when you are pissed off. Try calling someone or something batshit crazy without wanting to throw your hands at the air dramatically, I dare yea.
I.E. The PC censorship in colleges has gone batshit crazy
(It might be offensive to batman, IDK).
