Islamaphobia has been so deeply embedded that people create so many levels of cognitive dissonance as to who the true villains are
Bro is concerned about Muslims being violent? And he won’t even apologize?
Buddy. The President of the United States did a murder spree in your country to kidnap your president and take your oil and is running your country as a vassal state as your blood brothers are out in the streets protesting.

This is a real problem. Hundreds of millions have long covid. Cognitive dissonance in action.
📺 Highlights from novaramedia.com on Long Covid
Nick Robinson omits Long Covid in reference to the rising number of people claiming disability & the Milburn Review.
Helena MTG & @daliagebrial.bsky.social rightly remind him COVID was (& is) let rip & Long COVID is a devastating illness.

Ostensibly religious Christians telling themselves Trump is a person of faith, a Godly man, a good Christian might be the single biggest reality inversion of this ear—which is really saying something—yet there are moments when it becomes undeniable and the pain of the cognitive dissonance grows.
Wild: Trump's Evangelical allies are dismayed by his refusal to forgive his enemies even to get into Heaven. They truly fear he's headed for Hell. (Are they wrong?)

That social security and Medicare is so popular with seniors is a miracle, and also something conservatives have to do cognitive dissonance about. But Jesus fuck they hate the welfare state.

The duality of my Bluesky and Mastodon feeds for the last two years has been people who see AI as a beneficial tool for making their code better, and people who refuse to believe that's possible.

This is also true of the dynamic with trans people, immigrants, etc. Implicit bias and cognitive dissonance are not partisan phenomena exclusive to the right.
(A lot of people are pot-committed to the idea that the problem with Democratic politics is the party being overly solicitous of Black voters, so even when the opposite is shown to be true, at the cost of elections, they have a hard time accepting it.)

Very strange cognitive-dissonance situation right now, where a lot of Serious-Business Governance Liberals are still talking wild constitutional reforms.
Meanwhile the Democrats, fresh off the biggest sweep of our lives, are wringing their hands over the correct way to impeach *Pete Hegseth*

it’s a weird combination of cognitive dissonance, a lack of political education, and a very narrow political imagination

I remember when Assata Shakur passed away and everybody was typing RIP to her.
And all I could think was y’all would’ve cursed her out and told her she supports Trump because she didn’t support Democrats or Republicans
I think the same thing when y’all praise Malcolm X or the Panthers
