bolzano's logic and our current inability to think straight

Bolzano understood that propositions and ideas exist as objective entities, independent of any mind apprehending them. This distinction, between the 'thought-in-itself' and the subjective act of thinking, is consistently obliterated in contemporary discourse. We conflate our psychological states, our biases, our feelings about a concept, with the concept's objective logical content. This semantic slippage isn't merely imprecise; it is the root of our profound inability to conduct rational deliberation. How can truth emerge if we cannot even distinguish between a logical structure and our private mental apprehension of it? This failure is a fundamental epistemic collapse.
