Average people are nescient, not ignorant, not stupid (in a general sense), and certainly not careless. Nescience is absence of information, often withheld by the sources of which information is consumed, i.e. curriculums, media, social media, text books, etc.
If people were taught the truth, actual truth by moral media and schooling, we wouldn't be where we are today.
Thanks. I almost forgot this word. It's less insulting and can be used in discussions.
