Agree with what you say, but that isn't really what I was questioning. I don't believe you need to be focused on intellectual pursuits or have attained some political consciousness to realise that you don't know something. Being self-aware is not an educational thing - in reality accepting that you are not an authority on something does not need to be learned. So I guess like some posters have said before it comes down to a need to maintain self esteem (with an inherent need for belonging if you will), even though it's based on flimsy opinion pieces that people choose to believe without thought.
