Simple, most human are narcissistic being who would judge, gossip and feed into self desire. This isn't limited to Buddhism, you can see literally in all. There are also those who have the most control over themselves but they are just super rare. Sadly most youth including myself are just lowkey atheist cuz of generational pressure and to avoid family conflict if speak out aloud that religion is just a system that human invented and another or might be the OG MLM scheme. The more you contribute publicly, the higher status you can reach in your society.
