It's truthiness. It sounds right to the biases that people hold dear. No one wants to think "there but for the grace of whatever, go I." A part of American capitalism uses people up and spits them out when they stumble and fall. Broken bodies and broken minds look for some sort of balm to try to numb the pain. It's just that many people don't realize that they do it too, with addictions to alcohol, games, social media, pornography, or hatred. We're blindly rushing headlong into a massive crisis of environment, society, government, and people. Homelessness, mass murder, harmful drug use, and fascism are all symptoms of this and no one wants to think about it.
