EVERYONE thinks they are smart enough to know they've been conned. Fact is, MOST people actually have zero idea they've been conned their entire life.
Nuclear family. Acid rain. Holes in the ozone layer. We were 100% the good guys in WW2. Saddam Hussein was a bad man. The news never lies ( I took a ride on a helicopter in Iraq ). The government has your best interest in mind ( cigarettes, alcohol ).
Folks stand fast behind what "they've been told" by someone who has apparent more knowledge than they do. This removes the need for them to think for themselves and actually think about things.
"I know what I was told was 100% truth" Can you prove it though? Can you find ANY actual evidence to support what you were told?
This is exactly it : ego.
