As in we attempt to be free thinkers but are bumbling idiots who generalize a little knowledge beyond its validity.
Or we repeat the mistakes of old problems already solved like resorting to empirical scepticism ie flat earthers.

Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment.
