"Are they really stupid, or do they just don't care?"

"Are they really so stupid, or do they just don't care?

"Are they actually stupid, or do they just don't care?"

" "Are they really so stupid, or do they just don't care? " These are all wrong. You can't use both "do" and "don't" as auxiliaries for the same verb ( care ).
