Hi Cerberus,
Maybe as Jack Nicholson said "you can't handle the truth". I wonder whether for many people being bought up in an environment where all the information they receive is sanitized, cleaned up, and made nicely consumable, people just can't deal with the rather messy complicated world we live in.
I don't think there's any kind of conspiracy, could it just be that everything, information included needs to be consumable these days. Has the consumer society developed to such a point that information needs to be washed, graded, and packaged, just like carrots in the supermarket?
