Why do people have the wrong priorities?

[Majed]

When you look around, everyone is in survival mode. No one care about philosophy, epistemology, exploring the mind, metaphysics... 

They're lost chasing money, success, sex, marriage, friendships, romantic relationships, studies, work, political ideologies, social justice, religion...

But why no one is interested in existence itself, instead of their petty stupid human goals ? 

[LastThursday]

You're born into a society and culture and indoctrinated from a young age. It's super hard to break out of that programming - even if you wanted to - everything is against you. Philosophy, epistemology and all that stuff is very hard to learn and understand, and most people don't see the utility of it, it doesn't help them survive. I wouldn't underestimate how indoctrinated you yourself are either, work on that, let others worry about themselves.

@Majed Neurotypicals often mostly care about meaning. They want to have a nice job, a nice marriage, nice family and they want to be respected. Learning about philosophy will not do this for them and this is why they don't care.
