- pdonis 6y agoThe only way to fight it is for having false beliefs to have bad consequences, and having true beliefs to have good consequences. But the advance of civilization is basically the continual reduction in bad consequences from false beliefs and good consequences from true ones. Once upon a time, having false beliefs would get you killed and having true beliefs would help you survive. Now having false beliefs gets you Facebook likes, and having true ones gets you downvotes.
