> the "social pressures" theory makes exactly the wrong prediction.
To be honest, the "social" sciences have rarely been interested in scientific accuracy, more than they have been interested in promoting specific political ideologies.
I doubt they will consider this a problem with their "science". To them it will probably be obvious that the problem here, again, is with society.
In short: When you're stuck inside a delusion, it's everything on the outside which looks crazy.
