Sensibly Speaking Podcast #181: The Psychology of Social Media ft. Rachel Bernstein
This week I am joined by Rachel Bernstein, licensed therapist and cult recovery expert, to discuss “doubling down” and why people will cling to beliefs which have been proven to them to be untrue but which only makes them believe it more. This led to many examples from social media and some discussion on that topic as well, including how arguing is wholly but counter-intuitively a bad idea.
