It's not fear, or not just fear. It's grief. The concept of a corporation and instutional society has died and we don't really want to admit it. The government is the last leg standing.. otherwise it's just everyone out for themselves. Rational thinking and debate is not leading the way, it's following. Getting the kind of verbal and rational agreements the baby boomers enjoyed, in today's system, is not happening. It is trivially easy to release personalized media that pumps up the grief and isolates people even more, then offer political and commercial products as a salve. We all pretend the primary cause is an great computing conspiracy, and we are being manipulated by our devices. Primarily, people have changed and tech is capitalizing on a more emotional and feelings based populace, whilst it's leaders head for dry land and buy up farmland. The popular Nietschze quote about the death of God and washing away infinite blood, doesn't go far enough. The conscious, alienated, knowledge of what should be and the subconscious social experience of grief - combined together - is absolutely deadly.
