Because hyper vigilance and running away is a good response to predatory/environmental threats.

If your brain is just a random collection of chemicals that formed by chance over billions of years, how can you trust your reasoning processes and the thoughts that you think?

If your brain works by other means than by chemicals and electromagnetic fields, then
you should not trust your reasoning processes in the least. Seek help.

you're actually not good at fighting without a bit of fear
Mike Tyson is quite insightful in the way that semi-retarded people can be sometimes, and he said something about how terrified he would be about losing fights and how Cus trained him to use his fear to motivate him to become the great fighter that he became, and he has this great quote about how he felt coming up to the ring where he would feel both terrified and completely confident at the same time

If it's not, how can you trust your reasoning process and the thoughts that you think? LOL.

Also, that's an appeal to consequences, which is fallacious reasoning. So by your own argument, evolution is true since your reasoning isn't trustworthy. LMAO

Sometimes shock is better than running because it enables predators.
For example wolves which might be considered human natural enemies in northern environment will immediately attack when you try escaping and you lose your only leverage.

Ever been chased by a wild animal, in practice?

Your body takes over. You run. You do not think.

You hyper pump adrenaline, and your body just moves on it's own.

No shit.
I have been in wild animal chase situations.
There is no thought, just move.

I am normally an anxious/nervous person, but with a looming threat of big fuzzy non-human thing barreling at you, you fucking bolt.

Yeah scientists just make up vaguely plausible answers in response to this. Obviously humans could just use intelligence to assess threats and decide to run. Fear exists because we are conscious and the story of evolution and survival is just a lie.

You did not explain why we need to answer a loaded question in service of a fallacious argument. How am I being dishonest? If anyone is being dishonest it's you for attempting this sophistry.
