- BrianOnHN 6y agoIf only "Thinking fast and slow" (kahneman) was distilled into something easier to swallow. These concepts aren't new. They're also universal truths about human nature. Everyone wants to think that they're in control, at least in their head. But until they come to terms with the fact that they are not in control, they will continue to do detriment to themselves and others. See "alcoholics anonymous" (AA) for evidence of this.
- eurekin 6y agoTotally on the same page with you on that one. I always thought it's a natural thing: once everybody matures they'll stop their knee jerk, emotional responses and only allow those well thought out, analytical ones. It seems though, there is an opposing and totally intentional force to that. Somehow I feel that removing the emotional reactions could lead to collapse of some bigger social structures, cause it seems that this is the main glue that holds them together
