Ignoring inconvenient truths for personal narrative
Amid a complex geopolitical situation where feminists cheered Hamas despite the slaughter of 1200 civilians, a woman dismissed accusations of Hamas's violence against women, claiming it had been debunked. The speaker engaged in a conversation with her, and although she initially denied the brutality, she later retracted her statement. Despite claiming her mission was to ensure truth online, she still chose to believe and propagate information consistent with her internal model, illustrating the tendency to ignore inconvenient truths for personal narrative.
