#confirmationBias
Ich hasse es, wenn ich dem #ConfirmationBias (Bestätigungsfehler) erliege. Andererseits ist es manchmal ganz gut, weil esmich wieder etwas kritischer macht.

Die Meldung, dass der Treffer eines russischen Rechenzentrums Putins Desinformationskrieg gestört habe, scheint ein Fake zu sein.

Does disliking someone make you more likely to believe they're guilty of a crime? When personal bias starts influencing how we interpret accusations, are we judging the facts or the person?

Reading political posted on #Facebook and the replies are definitely different.

Its still possible its #ConfirmationBias, but I have never seen such clean Elizabeth Warren replies or a Fox News post without overwhelming support in the comments.

Proof needs conditions.

What was the starting situation? What changed? For whom? Under what conditions?

Without that context, social proof may create confidence without helping a reader judge relevance.

Anyone can claim anything to fit your narrative #ConfirmationBias.
It doesn’t make it true.

Here are a few examples,
remember when Trump said
-“no new wars”,
-he has “an amazing healthcare plan”,
-“they’re eating the dogs”
-“DOGE check” & “tariff check”, and
-that he’d “eliminate the debt”

There was a period of my life when I said "I did my own research" and meant it as a badge of honor. New Field Note, read aloud, on the difference between that and actually doing it.

Confirmation bias makes us hunt down validating info while dismissing contradictory evidence. Social media algorithms supercharge this by locking us into airtight echo chambers that starve us of dissenting views. (2/5) #MediaLiteracy #ConfirmationBias

Enter confirmation bias. We actively hunt down and remember news supporting our views while dismissing contradictions. Algorithms supercharge this by locking us into airtight echo chambers. #ConfirmationBias #SocialMedia

A fake press release. A plausible moral panic. Dozens of news outlets that ran it anyway. Negativland's 1989 hoax is the cleanest demonstration of confirmation bias ever recorded.

Negativland and me: Why we fall for hoaxes
Public gullibility was a problem in the 1980s when I was caught up in a famous media hoax. It’s worse today.

Do not investigate like an attorney who must win.

Investigate like a detective who still cares who committed the crime.

A free mind does not fear correction.

It fears becoming too proud to deserve it.

Quando smettiamo di cercare ciò che potrebbe smentire la nostra ipotesi, non stiamo più verificando: stiamo cercando conferme.

A volte, il primo sospetto deve cadere sulle nostre certezze.

The question now is whether a market can price an economy that a growing share of its participants have agreed, in advance, to see differently.
