Why is it that groups of people ignore scientific proof, common sense and follow concepts, which are, objectively seen, bad for them?
The reason lies in our group instincts or group behaviour. This instinct overrules reason, simply to keep the group together. Unity within the group comes first and the group will go for the lowest common denominators in order to avoid discord. Very simple concepts and common believes are the strongest glue to keep people together.
