Simple logic – so simple it’s merely obvious – doesn’t register any longer. The bias blindspot is so immediate and so complete, and the conditioning is so ingrained and so successful, that it’s shamefully apparent people physiologically think differently now. It’s as if we’re explaining that water is wet to an oyster who only briefly understands water keeps it alive.

Once I recognized this, I stopped making obvious, logical points hoping to illuminate the logical fallacies and dissuade bias blindspot. “How can you not see this? It’s so obvious!”

I answered my own question. They can’t see it. They literally lack the capacity to recognize the obvious any longer.

This is why our nation’s return to common sense can’t be squandered. Reality-blind can’t be allowed to control any aspect of our nation ever again.
