I'm not trying to absolve anyone, saying someone is stupid is not accountability, it's just a cathartic insult. I'm just saying that free will is cultivated, not absolute, and the choices that people have available are often invisible to them. Everyone has a responsibility to do better, but it would be blind to ignore the tunnel vision our system imposes.

Trying to be all high and mighty and stroking our ego feeling "smarter" than poor assholes who never knew anything different is part of the reason anti intellectualism is so rampant
