We didn't all launch an ongoing decades-long campaign of lies about what the consequences will be though.

Right, we just blindly trusted the first things we heard on the subject, and everyone knows that's rational because humans never lie.

Remember: as long as you trust your government, trust the corporations, trust all the information you hear, especially from large and well-known institutions, you'll always be fine.

Never slow down, never stop to think, just keep buying, keep consuming, keep tuning into the same media sources, and NEVER EVER dare to question social consensus!

		I get the sarcasm but I don't really understand who you're mocking. I guess people who foolishly followed the herd and bought a gas car in the 80s instead of doing their own research and inventing an electric one.

		No one has time to verify/double check literally everything they're told. And if they did, they wouldn't have the time to learn everything that one would need to know to verify everything. It's impossible. Therefore, some level of trust is necessary: moreso for those who have less time/opportunity to learn and verify. While I understand the sentiment, blaming ~everyone~ provides no value here, while blaming the institutions who actively misled the world might.
