I get it to but I didn’t in my 20’s until somebody explained it to me.

We’re talking about people over thirty, who have paid personal income taxes for over a decade, who consider themselves intelligent, well grounded financial conservatives with an effective grasp of reality. It’s not that hard to look at the amount TurboTax or whatever says you owe before deductions, divide it by your total taxable income, and see that the resulting percentage doesn’t come close to matching one’s nominal highest bracket. It’s not a difficult subject if it can be checked with basic elementary school level arithmetic. Some people are either just lazy, or don’t want to know the truth, or both.
