People want it to be true. Instead they should want to know if its true.

  People want to be able to believe in a truth they are told rather than have to have the responsibility of observing their own at all times. People have been wired so strongly for this that they will even downvote you when you remind them of it :)

  > People want it to be true. This is the really disturbing thing. Why would someone want Twitter to have race-based image cropping? And yet the behavior of many in the various threads is precisely as if they did! I think it may actually make them happier if it's true. Who are the real racists, again? It's hard to tell sometimes. And after all, doesn't the Twitter OP acknowledge this inevitable result when calling it a "horrible" experiment?
