As we previously noted, people appraise reviews on Amazon on the basis of whether these accord with their values. The quality of the review isn't considered as important.
America is a very, very emotional society. Spielberg and Hollywood epitomize this. Stories are supposed to be uplifting and to have a moral message -- nothing grainy, artsy or dark.
Culturally, people find it unreasonable to be asked to move beyond their emotions.
But also this inability to read something in a light other than "how does this serve me or fail to serve me" has a feedback loop, so that people are so used to getting biased responses that they naturally defend against them.
In all, people are behaving very naturally because they don't have any idea that it is necessary to move beyond what feels natural, to develop higher culture.
