One of the greatest ironies of the 20th-21st centuries is that the lower and upper classes are closer to each other (in living a life driven by primal forces), than the middle classes are to either. Everything you've written is a middle class construct that doesn't exist on either---extreme---end of the class spectrum. These abstract constructs posit that there can be facts, truths, and "good" -- when the reality is that all the forces behind everything that impacts us are human in nature. We're all working to push our agendas, and reach our own ends (almost always unconsciously or unaware of the deeper reasons). So long as you keep off-loading all of your thinking and decision-making to others (in this case, the other would be Platonian woo-woo aether concepts), you're instigating the proliferation of middle class "intellectual" propaganda, and further widening the rift between you and the lower classes (one could even say, you're building a moat, because you're pushing the upper classes even further away).
