There has been a lot of research that points to the brain acting first, then justifying whatever actions it took. I believe this to be the natural state of affairs. I think the brain is as maximally lazy as it can be. This translates to clanning with a large-ish group of people, then trusting that group to make a good collective decision. Act immediately on social observation and emotion and then if absolutely necessary come back and revisit the action to figure out "why" you did it. If this is the way it works, then the default viewpoint regarding anything we do or say should be highly suspicious from a rational standpoint. It also means that we tech folks have spent a lot of time and effort trying to create artificial intelligence that reasons from logic to action, the complete opposite of the way real intelligence works.
