Cognitive Dissonance flat out does not exist. It is entirely possible to hold and openly espouse opposing viewpoints and justify it with complete nonsense. People have contorted themselves into believing it exists because if it doesn't, it means that fair-minded debate cannot solve many problems (which it cannot, actually).

Most Americans support Israel, but most Americans also support Palestinian statehood, so there’s no way of saying whether America is bad or not with respect to the Middle East :colbert:

cognitive dissonance super exists, it’s just that it follows the internal rules of each persons’ self image and not the official rules of formal logic. if there’s already an existing guideline for how to deal with a contrary message they can just use that heuristic instead of thinking. one of the reasons propaganda works so well is that it creates those “outs.” look at how trump was able to flip “fake news” basically the instant the term was coined, now anything you disagree with is fake and can be safely ignored

most cognitive dissonance research depends on presenting people with novel situations they’re not prepared for and earlier super unethical research depended on extreme situations like the millgram shock study, in which the dissonance was generated by the subject thinking they were hurting someone and the “out” was deference to the source authority of the man in the white coat holding the clipboard telling the subjects to continue

my fav thing about the milgram experiments was that he and everyone he asked thought that they'd get practically no one willing to go all the way up with the shocks and that they'd quit or refuse before maxing out

also lol he thought germans were inherently all nazis

quote:

Milgram suspected before the experiment that the obedience exhibited by Nazis reflected a distinct German character, and planned to use the American participants as a control group before using German participants, expected to behave closer to the Nazis. However, the unexpected results stopped him from conducting the same experiment on German participants.[9]
