Because there's a trickle down effect.
People who believe in it vote for people who believe in it. Those are the kinds of people who don't believe in climate change, who don't understand biology ('legitimate rape'), who slash research and development budgets, who try to get creationism presented in schools as legitimate science, and so on.
It's an actively damaging belief to hold.
