A couple of factors I see playing into this:
1) Most people are really close to the Y axis on the dunning Kruger chart - and don’t even know what that means.
2) We live in a society that speaks ongoing of “right and wrong”
3) People can’t say “I don’t know” and not feel like an idiot
4) data-driven people are a rare breed
5) in the absence of data-driven decision making you get hyper emotional people
6) tribalism
We’re all guilty of all of these things periodically but many people exhibit many of these traits ongoing.
I used to think it had to do with youth but sadly it doesn’t appear to always fade with age.
