I find it interesting that the study focused on power holders within the capitalist system, which incentivizes selfish behavior, greed, and abuse of power. In a system that does not incentivize those things, I think there would be very different results.
Exactly. Idealists know, that when they engage with material evidence that doesn’t fit their narrative, their worldview will get weakened in their own brain. So they have to terminate their thoughts.
And the more material evidence is on an instance, the more thought-termination per idealist there will be. An approximate formula would be:
amount of thought termination on a particular instance = amount of facts on that instance that idealists disagree with * amount of idealists (including federated ones browsing on all-sort)
No it isn’t, for either. Unexamined thought terminating cliches are worthless.
It’s not an unexamined thought. It’s a scientifically analyzed phenomenon.

Living up to both the name AND the instance’s rep - a twofer! I’m impressed.
Thoughts: terminated
Yeah, seems to be an extremely common occurrence here.

which I’d assume makes lemmy the number one.
Shut up nerd, you all sound the same
Well, that’s a well-reasoned and unassailable rebuttal if I’ve ever read one.
