Embrace Complexity, Reject Illusion

Evil is often easier to conceptualize than ignorance because it presents a straightforward narrative of good versus evil. In contrast, ignorance stems from the complexity of reality and is not simply remedied by education; even the most educated individuals can remain ignorant in various aspects. Understanding the intricate interdependence of knowledge requires recognizing that no one can independently uncover all truths. The notion of conducting individual research in the face of overwhelming information leads to unrealistic expectations, as knowledge acquisition is inherently a collaborative effort, akin to a team sport.
