IF humankind is presently being driven into nonviability through misdirection, distraction, highjacking-of-world-rule-by-oligarchy, segregation-of-wealth-from-as-much-of-the-population-as-possible,

AND students optimize for sensation-happiness by NOT learning..

what is the difference between those 2 population-principles?

They're the SAME principle!

Nonlearning-from-history, non-learning-in-school, non-making-gov't-accountable, non-correcting-our-current-stampeding-off-the-viability-cliff .. they're all the same fundamental-nature: unconsciousness comforting itself, while obliterating our future.

Why would this surprise anybody?

It's what our unconscious-minds WANT: non-responsible oblivion, consuming-feelings, being "helpless" as "protection" against accountability, etc.

It's the same principle.
