I think that is the main problem of the mainstream thinking - inability to see how multiple independent trends can interact and create new realities.
I believe that blindness, even the forced one, to such realities is one of the greatest dangers that allows these realities to develop and take almost everyone by surprise - oh, we did not see it coming.
>The reason being is that they just don't go that far and it's suddenly seems okay in comparison to what "could" happen.
Perhaps two scenarios should be presented: a catastrophic one and a one single step in the wrong direction.
