I enjoyed Scott Alexander Siskind's description of it in his book review of The Secret Of Our Success by anthropologist Joseph Henrich.

"Humans evolved to transmit culture with high fidelity. And one of the biggest threats to transmitting culture with high fidelity was Reason. [...] Historically Reason has been the villain of the human narrative [..] so evolution removed those genes from the population and successful cultures stigmatized them enough to give people an internalized fear of even trying."
