The author of those words in Matt 13 is reusing the metaphor from Isaiah 6 to supplement his source document (Mark).
There the prophet blamed the people for not agreeing with him. The fault was theirs not his or his arguments. Similarly 700+- years later the Matthean author felt that Jews that did not agree with him were somehow deficient, the fault was theirs.
Ironically Isaiah would probably have been one of those for just two verses earlier (7) he declared his sins were atoned for and guilt removed.

The context of Isaiah chapter 6 shows that Isaiah was a humble man who acknowledged his own imperfections. He wasn't going around "blaming" people for being stupid. The people were stupid of their own accord, and he was just observing it. It's the same thing that happened in Jesus' day. It happens today too.

Both Isaiah and Jesus made clear that the deficiency wasn't in the intelligence of the people who didn't understand. It was deficiency in their hearts. The people were stupid-hearted.
