So has emotional thinking.
They are entitled to their emotions, but not their facts. Problem is, emotional thinkers can’t tell the difference.
So has emotional thinking.

Emotionalism is emphasized and perpetuated throughout our educational system.
Children and teens through university level are evaluated for their EQ (emotional quotient). Maybe in the corporate world, as well, although I have no experience in that milieu.
Every single bit of online content attempts to use an emotional hook in the opening paragraphs of most articles that are designed as part of a sales funnel.
The *news* pumps emotionally loaded headlines to keep engagement at a high level.
Lack of emotionalism and lack of interpersonal engagement are considered psychological red flags for depression and distress, as well as for some diseases like Parkinsons or spectrums like autism.
So it’s no wonder people respond by thinking emotionally. They are programmed to do so.
However, it’s a mile wide and an inch deep because only superficial portrayals can be generated when it is expected and required everywhere in response to everything. True depth of feeling is usually absent.
And, since logical, non-emotional expression is still considered a male trait, results are to elevate the traditionally feminine and denigrate the traditionally masculine while still proclaiming that “gender is a social construct”.
People are purposely confused, misled and manipulated to the point of criminality and societal malpractice.
