: Those awkward moments when someone presents something as accurate that is not accurate, whether by a little or a lot, and you provide the missing information to them. (Verifiable, corroborable, multiple-sourced information.) However, they cling to their "personal truth" because their ego demands it because it isn't a matter of information but rather, for them, about identity.
Those awkward moments happen a lot.

@thedisasterautist especially these days..media, lack of fact-checking, foresight, listening.. propaganda, are just some of the problems..
@Museek: It's so strange but also so casual. Sometimes it takes me by surprise because for an apparent many people it only applies to particular issues/topics, and sometimes it depends on their emotional state at the time and what is happening in their local and/or larger zeitgeist. It can and does change the respect I have for more than a few people, as various behaviors over time do for everyone.
