People don’t seek truth — they seek confirmation

The human mind filters information not by accuracy, but by compatibility with what it already believes.

New knowledge is measured not by its truthfulness, but by how well it fits the internal model of reality.

What doesn’t fit — is rejected or ignored.

This is not a flaw. It’s a survival mechanism in a world of overwhelming noise.

But in terms of real understanding — it’s a dead end.
