The reason is simple. Human beings aren't overly reasonable creatures. We have moments of reasonability, sure. But we're also mammals, bound to emotion. First & foremost, we tend to think after our feelings. It takes a lot of education & training to overcome that tendency.

Science is critical 2 our lives, but I'm not sure about wise. It doesn't ultimately give us meaning or relieve grief. I'm not arguing 4 religion; just saying that science has obviously not solved basic human suffering & has made many things worse. We're killing our planet.

I think that's less a failure of science and more a failure of our species. We have the information, we have the ability to use the information to save ourselves, but we cling to myths out of fear instead. That's kinda on us.

We are addicted to selfishness, with elected leaders who have normalized it. When we learn to be selfless, we will again value justice and knowlege and move past hatred through tolerance to embracment. When we allow our vision to be world embracing, we will enter a golden age.

It seems like we are starting to select parties by different brain chemistry/thinking-styles and social media addiction systems intensify thought patterns in like minded people. Critical thinking is down but personal ego is up. Many react very exponentially to differing views.

A charistmatic narcissist sociopath can exploit this in a flock who is not able to control those addictions, making thoughts stronger, soon, everything the side pleading for sensible things like environmental or human rights protection is “bad” by definition.

Information overload? Analysis paralysis? Our ability to process has not caught up to the inputs and we shut it down.

It isn’t information overload so much as anger & despair overload. People shut that down because they’re tired of having their amygdala hijacked all the time. It’s getting very difficult to find non-partisan information about social issues. Ragebait leads in clicks.
