A Sad Observation

[billroper]

This is not necessarily true of any given individual, but certainly seems true of groups as a whole:

The farther you are to the left or the right, the more likely you are to believe any purported data point that confirms your biases, regardless of the actual truth of the situation.

Corollary: maybe I should just stop reading Facebook.

Or maybe it's just more obvious with those people.

But it confirms my bias against Facebook, so it must be true. :)
