Just posted this on another thread. I hope it’s apt here, too.

I think the big problem we have at this point is that there are millions upon millions of people who realize they’ve fallen for the biggest hoax in history, but are so bullheaded they will never admit they fell for a con. That makes it much harder to achieve “Herd Immunity” to blatant gaslighting.

That’s a huge hurdle in the election steal, too.

Agreed. Many, many people can never admit that they’ve been wrong about anything, to any degree, at any time.

Yep. Was it Mark Twain who pointed out that it’s far easier to get someone to fall for a hoax than to get them to admit they’ve fallen for a hoax.
