This really has war propaganda vibes. Either you are with us, or against us.
Could it be any other way? Groups/movements/ideologies that aren’t like this have lower survival odds. Thus evolution weeds them out. Self-awareness being the most limited resource in the universe, those same people are quite certain they’re in the right about it, too…
I think I see what you mean and mostly agree. I just have to add a little optimism by pointing out that sels-awareness is not a “ressource”, as having it does not limit the supply for others. It is a characteristic. Keeping the evolutionist mindset, I would then argue that the spreading or disappearing of a characteristic depend on the environment. So we should collectively socially promote characteristics we want to see grow ! Let’s celebrate radicality, self-awarenes, curiosity, etc. !
