DD Support Board and Research Team

[12yearplan]

Hey Gitreal, here’s the word I couldn’t think of the other day "cognitive dissonance".
From my pov I may say something like “Yeah man, that’s why CDNL is different, not like those other guys”.
Anyhow, interesting idea and scientifically supported too, lol. Could be a fun exercise for this board ;).

“What this (and dozens of other experiments) reveal is the way we filter new information when it challenges our strongly-held beliefs or judgements. We use a series of post hoc manoeuvres to reframe anything inconvenient to our original position. We question the probity of the evidence, or the credentials of the people who discovered it, or their motives, or whatever. The more information that emerges to challenge our perspective, the more creatively we search for new justifications, and the more entrenched we become in our prior view.”
