just like Covid, everything we see here or on any social media site could be 100% fabricated. Our entire view of the world is controlled by what we can see. That is why Covid meant very little to me. Nobody was sick around me, even though everybody on TV was saying that it was terrible and everybody was dying.
Our world view is only as big as the information aperture that we use to observe reality from. as far as I'm concerned, just about everything is fake until I can actually see it in my own physical world and not on the screen.
Yes but everybody is their own judge and goaler. They have rationality. Discernment. Objection. Conscience. Prejudice.
Research should mean looking at both sides, support and or objection, and then weighing up how it affects you, if at all, or what you choose to believe in and validate.
Most of us rationalise by the experiences we've gained, giving us our perception. No it's not confirmation bias.That's, media, sometimes education and heritage, manipulating any choices, and advertising, propagating your opinion and its supposed bias.
But what exactly was his remarks in context towards, sports? Hahaha.
The nice thing about logic is that it doesn't care about your biases, if you can show something to be internally inconsistent, then it's wrong.
I went through most of the Lockdowns not knowing what was actually happening, but knowing which narratives were demonstrable lies. You don't necessarily need real world data to show this, just use the data a person is using to justify their position to disprove them.
So I knew Covid wasn't particularily deadly, it didn't kill indiscriminately, the vax was never safe or effective, and lockdowns were never about health. I didn't need to prove the opposite (which we couldn't until after the fact) to know that what we were told was a lie.
Another easy one is: of someone tells you something is definitely true, but doesn't provide evidence, it probably isn't.
To this day, Youtube puts links on all videos discussion Covid that purport to show the "real" facts, but which merely lead to a government site with broad, unfalsifiable, statements, not studies or data. I assume, without further evidence, that anything they're trying to say is a lie.
Once you eliminate the possibilities, whatever remains, no matter how unlikely, must be the truth.
James Lindsay speaks extensively on the Hegelian Dialectic; which is just this.
Polarize people as far as they'll go, on any issue, then set them against each other. If both see the other side as completely wrong, you can move the narrative in a completely unrelated direction as a "compromise" or "resolution" of the problem.
they just watch 1-2 videos from Alex Jones and that's it. not to mention the cofirmation bias that appears in all camps, supposedly the nazis know about the evils of the government and the jews yet if you tell them that Hitler was bad and that a totalitarian regime isn't the solution they will sperg out as bad as the leftists from antifa.

Confirmation bias is what I believe it's called

so how are conspiracy believers any different?

I've researched it and you're wrong.
Extremely important for serious conspiracy theorists: always question your sources, especially when they're saying what you want to hear.
What about the propaganda that "Trump and Xi Jinping are against the NWO" that Breitbart and CCTV (Chinese state media) feeds you?
But if you're a high T male, like myself, you can use more objective logic, as opposed to confirmation bias like this beta. So I can decide for myself
Yeah, OP is projecting.
the rules are there are no facts
