fMRIs and motivated reasoning suggest that CapitalismFail is, socially, a functional religion. The "stupid wars" you reference, but for motivated reasoning, include what has been waged against nature through actions informed by the irrational thinking that created limited liability laws and markets almost two centuries ago. The 'success' of this economic warring has triggered abrupt climate change dynamics. Privileged humanity's 'religiously' chosen homeostasis makes it unable to see what its irrational irresponsibility has wrought. For me this suggests we are not a rational species when the chips are down…& we do "stupid"/rationalized things (like, functionally, MIT's Plan for Climate [In]action).
