In my experience, most people hear/see/think/believe what they want to hear/see/think/believe. Searching for validation is a lot more fun than seeking an uncomfortable counter factual, exposing possible weaknesses or errors in your thinking, this, your position. It’s humbling and hard work to want to know if you’re wrong, but for some it’s the only satisfying path. Looking forward to being a little less wrong tomorrow...
