what is sunk cost fallacy?
"sunk cost fallacy, where people justify increased investment in a decision, based on the cumulative prior investment, despite new evidence suggesting that the decision was probably wrong."
@mk@BigSkyRider The whole multi-year, slow-motion disaster is a classic case study of "profits before ethics" and shows the level of corruption in government and M5M as paid shills for big pharma with no regard to the harm caused to the public 🙁 💉 🚑 🙄

@dbolli@mk the part I don't care for is the vaccine injured, going back to the same system that injured them in the first place for their treatments, while trying to figure out what the mass formation thinks they should think.

imo religion serves the purpose of entraining the psyche to a particular set of values through repetition, which brings about a correspondingly habitual behavioural pattern. one can practice this alone or in a group, but the point remains the same, to change/reinforce personal behaviour in alignment with one's values.
*belief* on the other hand is not a necessary component (and in fact is not emphasized in the vast majority of the world's non-abrahamic religions; see "orthopraxy"). it is a pointless exercise that has demonstrably lead to world-wide violent mass delusions and genocide. the emphasis on belief is inimical to the actual point of religion, to align personal behaviour in accordance with wholesome life affirming values.
You have to believe though. It's like asking the people who've build their entire lives around Jesus or Muhammad to one day leave it behind. It's not so much the sunk cost, but admitting the basis of your world view is a lie is pretty difficult, if not impossible, for most people. It's difficult for people to admit they were wrong, even under overwhelming evidence.
and it does make sense. If you questioned the foundations of your beliefs constantly, you would have no stability. Religious belief systems are a social evolutionary response.

you're welcome. it frustrates me that due to the abuses of certain actors under the rubric of religion, that the baby is frequently thrown out with the bathwater. once the subject is put into a more constructive context it can yield enormous benefits. to some extent however it's much like a blacksmith creating tools first from different types of stones, dirt, water and sticks. it's not enough to hold the tool. to really understand you have to create it from the raw elements. a lifetime of introspection and consciously juggling perspectives.
