@skooookum Yeah cognitive dissonance is the key point- the people who can get under your skin, the criticisms that really stick in your mind and cause reevaluation and growth…
@skooookum I don’t enjoy being wrong, but I’m hoping that motivates me to try harder to be right and reasonable and admit what I don’t know… if I’m blocking out criticism or wielding social power to punish my critics so they stay silent, that’s kinda cheating Imo
