It is a feedback loop with no circuit breakers.
Israel is an echo chamber.
At the level of most people, who just want to go along with the crowd, the whole chosen schtick is basic tribalism, basically Bronze age tribalism, given that is when the Torah was codified. It started to get past its sell by date 2000 years ago, when the Zealots refused to believe their God had to bow to the Roman gods, as human civilization started to grow beyond local tribes.
So Judaism, as a cultural group, is missing that 2000 years of civil evolution and the Zionists are back having to learn the same lesson.
