Why do we accept absurdity as truth?

Most people aren’t searching for knowledge.

They’re searching for confirmation.

Information that challenges their worldview is ignored or rejected — not because it’s false, but because it doesn’t fit.

This isn’t stupidity.

It’s a survival mechanism in a world overloaded with noise.

But from the perspective of truth — it’s a dead end.
