A short video/transcript excerpt explaining confirmation bias: the tendency for people to reinforce preexisting beliefs and ignore contradictory information, especially during heated discussions on sensitive topics (e.g., gun control, reproductive rights, race). The speaker highlights how this leads people to 'hunker down' in their beliefs and resist alternative viewpoints.
There is the phenomenon known as confirmation bias, which is the brains tends to reinforce what we already believe and then ignore information consciously or subconsciously, that doesn't match what we already believe. Which is often why whenever we're having conversations about really delicate topics, like it could be about gun control or reproductive rights or race, and they just evolve so fast because people hunker down in their belief bunkers and they're unwilling to see another point of view.
