"enshrining emotions over intelligence" has an exact meaning. It doesn't call for discarding one or the other, it calls for keeping both in their proper place, and it works better for reason to have the deciding vote.
"I don't care what the facts are, I know how I feel" is a warning sign, and a first step on a bad road. There's a word for people who don't allow external reality to affect what's going on in their minds. Pasting the term "humanity" on cheerfully allowing other people to treat reality as optional is misusing and misdefining the word.
You know, considering all the people who keep lecturing me on not getting "nuance," I sure spend a lot of time explaining even mildly complex concepts.
