Why the hate for wisdom?

[Minyatur]

Because I make the basic inherent assumption that people are *intelligent* enough to make rational decisions and they don't need to be babied, coddled, or restricted information because society is afraid it will turn them to the dark side. Shutting down free speech doesn't make negative philosophies go away. It just makes the philosophy more attractive to people because they feel like they are being lied too and suppressed. It just breeds resentment.

I do kind of see an issue with control policies based on fear, doubt, distrust and a lack of faith in people. I don't see how that has the potential to effect positive change in a metaphysical sense.

I think because people want results, they fail to work from a place of balance, acceptance and understanding and through this they fight negativity with negativity, reinforcing what they want to see gone.

I think positive change is effected more on small scales, where you know, people hearts open up and not because behaviors are dictated. We are often reminded of the importance of faith, so there is a limit to what can be achieved without it.
