This is my personal opinion without any real evidence than my experience and knowledge of what I read somewhere:
People are stupid and lazy mostly. The education is going down for most industrial countries. Changing habits is stressful and avoided if possible.
Manipulation works. Media and advertisements successfully change people behaviour without them noticing. If you put enough money into a campaign people think they are responsible for your co2 emissions.
As long as you don’t drive people too fast and too deep into an existential crisis they will tolerate a lot!
The system is rigged. People who are honest and social are pushed down. While greedy and lying people are being pushed on top.
Why are people stupid and lazy? Is this a new thing? Why are conditions worsening?
Correct.
Correct.
Kinda vibes-based but strikes the target. It’s less that lying is encouraged, but that profit drives the system and money greases its wheels. Follow the dollar.
