If you mean that people tend to give far more credence to what they feel than to what is real, I would have to agree. In fact I consider that one of the more serious problems that humanity faces.

What is "reality?"
Physics indicates that we are participating in creating our own universes/reality.

“Consciousness is fundamental, and matter is derived from consciousness." – Max Planck, theoretical physicist who originated quantum theory, 1918 Nobel Prize in Physics

“A fundamental conclusion of the new physics also acknowledges that the observer creates the reality. As observers, we are personally involved with the creation of our own reality. Physicists are being forced to admit that the universe is a “mental” construction."

R.C. Henry, Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Johns Hopkins University

Feels vs. reals.

@Donotbelieve
I read and comment in liberal/progressive and conservative forums on here, and the feels are strong in both. I'm left; however, I think people can be rational...I have yet to encounter that.
