I believe that the average person is happy to wallow in their ignorance. The subject doesn’t seem to matter. People in general only take the time to learn the catch phrases, sound bites, and just enough information to try and appear halfway educated on the subject.
Far and few between have I come across that actually have nothing to say on a subject, or have educated themselves deeply into the matter, be whatever it may.
I realize as a species with both limited time and interest, unless the subject greatly influences our lives in any form of capacity, we willfully choose to remain in the dark. Worse yet, are those who will choose to listen to others of which they no not their life, and find their ramblings believable.
It bothers me to think of the mindless masses dictating the path another must go down. The blind leading the blind would be a blessing. These are those who push you into a corner, beat you up and take your lunch money, while yelling how your actions have victimized them.
Why do most people stand solid in belief of that which is wrong? Even when they know themself to be wrong? What is it within our own mind that limits our reasoning, and neglects us a chance to strive?
