Trapped like rats... well they are predictable.
They do the same thing, travel the same path always and will not try or reluctant to anything new.
In many cases.. are caught, trapped and killed.

Not calling anyone a rat.. just some things that make you go hummmmm...

General Neophobia in Everyday Life
Humankind's Fear of Progress and Change
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neophobia
Neophobia, or metathesiophobia, is the fear of anything new, especially a persistent and abnormal fear. In its milder form, it can manifest as the unwillingness to try new things or break from routine.
Neophobic Behavior
Well documents behavior. Studied, utilized, practiced and understood by Scientist and many Americans. Oh yea.. I believe we are being played.
I recently came across this… and read. Rats are considered very neophobic. They are weary of anything new. Of course I started thinking. Rats arrived abundantly from Europe. Europeans brought Slaves to America. Europeans understood rats. So the question is.

General Neophobia in Everyday Life
Humankind's Fear of Progress and Change
The Role of the Press in Creating Hysteria“Downmarket media publications reflect - and exaggerate - many of the fears of society itself. People want their lives to be part of historical drama. The millennium bug, worldwide pandemics, moral panics and fear that society is going wrong all betray humankind's neophobic reactions to progress and change. Newspaper editors pick on this fear and concoct alarmist stories from everyday events and statistics; for example they publish alarmist articles on dangers from mobile phone masts even though there are none.
===============People fear what is new, more than they care to fear the unknown (or known) risks of what is accepted.

- Does our ancestral heritage have us neophobic to change?
- Why didn’t many slaves leave the South after Slavery?
- Are we afraid of change to the degree… we could be self-defeating our own progress to a better life?
- Knowing drugs, smoking and alcohol are bad for us.. why do we continue to do it...? simplist of a neophobic action... being human ( unlike a rat ) knowing it is wrong, bad and yet won't do anything different to avoid demise, being trapped or held in a destruction position.
- What causes people to avoid change, and improve themselves?
- Old dog doesn't learn new tricks... I hear this alot.
- Thats not how I do that.. is another... without being open minded enough to consider... is it working?
