Seeker... Looking For Truthππβ¨ππ
πππCognitive Dissonance is real... I get it, its so so hard becuase we have all been lied to and brainwashed on every level our whole enitire life... I am just so grateful I am a free thinker and I dont suffer from this... all we can do is hold gentleness and compassion for those who do.πππ

Working to become a better version of myself through the grace of God. No DMs, please.
I think pride is a factor as well. People don't like to admit they were wrong or misinformed.

I know because I've been in that position. π³ For example, I once believed the wars with Iraq were for the reasons both Bush administrations said they were. I used to roll my eyes when I saw bumper stickers that said "9/11 was an inside job." It's taken time, but I admit when I was wrong or had bad information, because when I do those things, I can evolve my thinking.
