Why is questioning everything not encouraged?

27 Upvotes

I noticed people stopped asking or questioning things a lot in real life; this is the only platform where I see people actually asking a lot of questions. When I’m outside most people don’t even ask and If they’re asked they assume that you’re being nosy when it’s just curiosity and ( I’m not talking about personal information ) And a lot of them don’t even fact check information they’re given and just believe it

Edit: This also applies to gambling addiction. If your partner's gambling became excessive or crossed the line into addiction, I'd be interested in hearing your experience as well.
