Confirmation Bias

The natural human tendency to hold opinions that agree with one's own point-of-view as more valuable than opinions that do not. However, this can be magnified to an insane proportion in ignorant people, overly-religious people, people who have power, people who think they have power, people on a power trip, and people who hate criticism in general. This may stem from a fear of change, what one does not know, or from an OD god complex.
Most 4chan users have an off-the-wall confirmation bias.

biased

Every political definition here, because when talking about politics people seem to have an inability to say the facts without mashing their opinion in there
We get it, you guys have strong political opinions. But don’t constantly spread your agenda here. This is a place to learn the meanings of slang, not a fucking soap box where you can make sure everyone has the same biased as fuck opinion as yours
