Todays topic: Confirmation bias
" i read from a book last year (The Art of Thinking Clearly by Rolf Dobelli)"
The desire to be right and the desire to have been right are two desires, and the sooner we separate them the better off we are. The desire to be right is the thirst for truth. On all counts, both practical and theoretical, there is nothing but good to be said for it. The desire to have been right, on the other hand, is the pride that goeth before a fall. It stands in the way of our seeing we were wrong, and thus blocks the progress of our knowledge.
here lots of people while spreading kindness get into nonsense argument
and not accomodative to others opinion!

Confirmation bias is the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that confirms or supports one’s prior beliefs or values
