The vast majority of what people call "thinking" is merely finding reasonable excuses for their instinctual intuition.

The brain is an extremely stingy energy manager; it despises truly high-energy-consuming computations. To avoid the pain of logical deduction, you directly download the socially pre-installed "concept integration package" and mistakenly believe that it is your own viewpoint. Your anger, emotion, or criticism online are often not rooted in rational analysis but are triggered by specific words that activate your conditioned reflexes. You think you are the driver, but in reality, you are just a biological vessel running code written by others.

If your opinions have never offended anyone, and have never even overturned your own old beliefs, then you have never truly thought; you are only reciting.
