I have figured out why people do not pay attention and realize that the world has entered la la land.

It is because many have an overestimate on their ability to know facts and decide who is honest and trustworthy.

Many people look to some authority or knowledgeable friend as a compass in times when it is difficult to decipher all that they are being told. Unfortunately, these authorities and knowledgeable people are seemingly the most vulnerable to the false narrative.

It is not the authorities who are completely to blame when they honestly believe their drivel. It is everyone else who did not think for themselves. It is not so complicated that most people could not see the forest through the trees if only they had more confidence in themselves.
