Real talk. The disdain engineers have toward the "soft sciences"[sociology, psychology] enables them to manipulated into building systems which reproduce and reinforce social structures and social relations in ways that they would otherwise object to.

To the degree that we've collectively built a dark forest, it's been in part due to this lack of multi-disciplinarianism.

Humans are amazingly adept at rationalization.
