Self-deception

I am regularly amazed at the human capacity for self-deception.

The way people can just ignore inconvenient facts to suit their “world view”.

The way people, when directly questioned, invent reasoning and don’t even realise it. Post-hoc rationalisation.

Lucky that I don’t fall for all that. I’m different.
