Your thoughts on the topic are, of course irrelevant. Your characterization is incorrect too, though since you seem to be having a great deal of difficulty gasping the far simpler notion of modernism and postmodernism, I'll spare you the general conception of vanguardism and materialism.
This does well to demonstrate what I was writing about previously. What you personally, "see," especially in a figurative sense, is not necessarily objectively true.
Further, even if you were correct, what these people, "thought," and what they, "ask themselves," is irrelevant in regard to objective reality. It does not, for instance, change the fact that statistically makes more money with a college degree than without. Their feelings about it are irrelevant.
The statistics in the cases you bring up are rarely in dispute. My observation is that terrorist statistics seem to start and end there. The general pattern then becomes a fight about proposed solutions. But in general, facts and objective statistics are good.
