Belief Bias
"Why think critically when I can just check if the conclusion feels right?"
What is Belief Bias?

Evaluating logical arguments based on their believability rather than validity.

Undermines critical thinking, reinforces polarisation, and makes logical discourse nearly impossible.

Fun Fact

Even trained logicians fall victim to this bias. Our brains prioritise conclusions over the process of reaching them.
