Social anosognosia is when a group of people, perhaps even society at large, devolve into a state of destructive cluelessness.
are we there yet?[/quote]

I don’t think society is any more clueless than it’s ever been, but… only since the proliferation of WMDs and an intertwined, highly-complex financial system over the last 70 years have we been able to add the “destructive” element to our cluelessness. I’d say we’re there. I think we can reverse course (to some degree) – that is, I don’t think we’re HOPELESSLY destructively clueless – but it’s gonna take some work and a lot of pain, neither of which is popular with humans.
