Chain Bias

A cognitive bias that conceives of non‑scientific beliefs as links in a chain: once you accept one link, you are inevitably bound to the next, eventually being dragged down by the whole chain. Chain Bias is closely related to Domino and Knock‑On biases, but it emphasizes the idea of connection—that all non‑scientific beliefs are secretly linked, so accepting one is accepting the entire system. The bias ignores that people often pick and choose beliefs eclectically, forming their own patchworks of ideas.

Example: “He believed that if you accept the possibility of ESP, you are logically committed to accepting all forms of pseudoscience—Chain Bias confusing correlation in his own mind with necessity in everyone else’s.”

this tiktok account is an anime account. ifykyk, they post random videos that go on their mind. they like strawberry flavored mochi, is introverted, really kind (lies), i would say they’re someone kurapika would like to be friends (or more) with. they are not patient, likes to read wattpad ($mut-), they probably listen to music to get away from reality. THEY’RE FOR SURE A KURAPIKA KINNIEEE.

chainbastardd does not like people who slander their beloved chain user.
