@knowprose yeah, that's a good point.
Cognitive surrender, automation bias, those just seem like specific cases of deferring to authority, which to an extent is a good instinct! But very hackable. :-/

@elizayer Maybe it's that some of us don't have to hack it and that some of us do that I am coming to terms with from day to day. I regularly put my ideas in front of firing squads. 👀 🤣 It reminds me of that old George Carlin bit... I'll see if I find it... "You gotta WANNA"... I think that's the problem. People don't wanna.
