All an idiot needs is the teeniest tiniest iota of plausibility and all their preconceived notions are true and correct in their mind.

Confirmation bias, it’s the new drug.

That is facebook’s entire algorithm, and the reason why so many look at White Nationalists and don’t see Nazis these days.

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We’re all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don’t like a thing doesn’t mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
