Aka confirmation bias.
We like explanations that fit what we expect, even if they're completely wrong.
- TeMPOraL 2mo agoI said consistent with your experience, not with your expectations. Lived experience is empirical data.
- moffkalast 2mo agoThat would be the case if our memory wouldn't be completely fluid and built on subjective perceptions. The two sort of merge together over time, you come to see what you expect. It's only when something really out there breaches the belief model when that actually happens.
