Having said that, most people don't know how to react to things that run contrary to what they want to hear. For every mean-spirited troll, there's a passive-aggressive Princess Unikitty. If you don't have a Chicken Little screaming the sky is falling, you have a Henny Penny who will insists everything is fine and dismisses any criticism directed at anything. Go to the D&D 5e forum and suggest that something about a class or a rule or a spell or what have you might be out-of-whack, and you'll get no shortage of people who clearly just don't want to hear that anything in 5e is anything less than sublime. We in the first world are becoming a people who are not ashamed to reject reason in favor of impulsive gut reactions. There's a filter of rational scrutiny that fewer and fewer people can't bother to apply.</blockquote>
