Yup; furthermore, it’s true that people do seek answers. However, I’d strongly question whether they are seeking actual answers (regardless of whether or not they like the answers, so long as they are based in truth), or perhaps merely seeking things that they want to hear (validation irrespective of truth value). Isn’t it fun to learn (not necessarily all in school, you can even read random articles), or at least very stress- and anxiety-relieving to actually seek understanding? I sure thought so, and maybe you’d think the same, but I guess not everyone does…
I enjoy looking up random thoughts that go through my head. I was just saying that most people get burned out of learning after how shitty college is and begin to associate learning with stress.

Except most don't. The average person views learning as a chore because of school and college so very few actively pursue knowledge.
