> I've started to ignore studies these days that contradict how most humans would have lived, for most of humanity

This is probably one of the worse heuristics I've ever heard.

Humans throughout humanity have lived awful lives full of disease, death, and misery. It used to be common for a woman to have 10 kids and maybe 2-3 would make it to adulthood.

The only reason you even have the ability to take such an obviously wrong position is BECAUSE of the very things you "ignore".
