Confirmation theory

Not to be confused with the study.

When you come up with a theory for a subjects that shares or identifies similar aspects, of which imply another theory. This theory confirms another, in logic with what’s been expressed, whether directly or indirectly.

Symbolic in relation. Hint of mutuality. Sarcasm marked.
Larry - “The time doesn’t shoot too far out as he loops further, I think he gets killed in the end.”

Tom- “That would make sense why blood stains appear later in the loops as he keeps looping further. Cool confirmation theory.”

Larry-“Stfu Tom! That’s not gonna happen.”

Confirmation Bias Realism

The pragmatic, Kant-informed position that while our reality is indeed filtered through innate and learned biases, this is realism for us. We cannot escape our confirmatory frameworks, so the "real" world is the one we collaboratively construct and confirm through shared biases (cultural, scientific, linguistic). Truth is a high-stability confirmation bias agreed upon by a community.
Example: The scientific method is the ultimate expression of confirmation bias realism. It doesn't claim to find bias-free truth, but a stable, inter-subjective truth by making our biases (hypotheses) explicit and rigorously testing them against a shared reality, creating a consensus confirmation that we accept as "real."
