> I automatically assume they are not intelligent, irrational,

You sound like a Taurus.

Let people enjoy things, the general socio-economic situation is already as shitty as one could imagine, asking people to be rational 100% of the time, with no beliefs, no nothing, is just a sign of socio-economic privilege.

Another failed prediction for the astrology here.

Not the it's going to shake your beliefs in it. That's our difference I guess. When I'm wrong it's something I strive to fix, but when you're wrong, what do you do?

So believing random wrong things is something you do because you enjoy it? I believe things because I think they might be true, and you believe things because you enjoy believing them ?

What an alien (to me) epistemology.

So what do I need to do, convince you that thinking rationally is even more fun? Try reading Harry Potter and the methods of rationality.

Or doing math.

And how is socio economic related to this?

You're ironically just proving me right.

The belief that you're a completely rational being is irrational in itself. If that's the belief you hold about yourself I guarantee you can find a friend or acquaintance who can point out contradictory and irrational behavior of yours.
