Flaw in our human design I'm afraid, either a or b thinking seems to sit very deep in our system also in other places

    Itโ€™s merely a shortage of intelligence, not human nature--other than the obvious limitations of a hominid brain--to lack nuance in a situation.

    I agree intelligence can really help with seeing nuance, but there are also very intelligent people who are bad with this and things like nuance because their brain is wired a certain way. I'm not saying the prople6who are bad at seeing nuance are not able to become better in seeing a gray-scale instead of a black and white binary, but that this problem is not exclusive to Lemmy.
