ignorance

Willful lack of knowledge: An seemingly small nuisance that is secretly the greatest problem in modern civilization. It has been used to justify some of the greatest atrocities humanity has ever committed, stunt and void necessary advances and progress on all fronts, and suppress the rights and opinions of others by no reasonable fault on their part. It is an all-encompassing ideology that spans most if not all of society in one way or another, whether it be small ideas like "It's just a (insert item here)." or major global historic events like the Trail of Tears; and if left unchanged will eventually be the downfall of mankind.
"...Many people would argue that ignorance is worse than knowledge..."

dinosaur ignorance

The willful refusal of corporate leadership to acknowledge or adopt emerging technology, trends, or innovations. This often leads to catastrophic business failure. Most commonly found in legacy companies where senior execs are allergic to change and cling to outdated models like it’s still 1995.

Symptoms include:

- Laughing off disruptive startups

- Refusing to invest in digital transformation (including AI)

- Saying things like “This is how we’ve always done it”

- Holding 3-hour meetings to ignore 3-minute solutions

- Exaggerated paranoia about worst case outcomes trying new things.

- Refusal to invest extra money just because it might lower short term profitability and might temporarily upset investors.

- Pathetically trying to look “new and hip” by wasting money on asinine expenditures DEI and wokeness thinking customers will overlook outdated products and services. This was especially problematic 2021-2024 but still unfortunately prevalent in many corporations. This is the “Bud Light” effect.
Blockbuster had a chance to buy Netflix for pocket change, but their execs unfortunately had Dinosaur Ignorance. They thought they were too big to fail and they couldn’t see the asteroid of new technology about to obliterate their entire business model. Now there is just a sad empty dusty store in Oregon full of regrets.
