The mental model precludes the self awareness you describe. That’s why laws and regulators are needed: you cannot entirely take the lizard brain out of the human.

You’re not going to convince people like Mark, but government can grind slowly, forever. No one else is going to protect you from these people at scale.

Oh I know that. The whole process is so obviously self-defeating that there’s clearly no actual rationality to it. It’s just a shame we’re all stuck on this boat with him.
