The Illusion of Truth 

I actually first believed it but then I realized that you might be tricking me and that it actually isn't true but because so many people liked it I do think it might be true.

Experiments have shown that this youtube comment is funny and causes cognitive ease and relaxation.👌👌👌👌

amazing!

had to read your comment 31 time. I agree with you!

Did anyone else think he was about to put an audible plug towards the end? Cause it almost seemed like it to me.

Until the radio station decision to play the same song a hundred times a day for months on end. The nineties and Heyyyy Macarena!

Yeah... I will probably never listen to James Brown - Get on the Good Foot normally again. And I will also never ruin another song by making it my alarm...

If that were true, then the Hokey Pokey would be a permanent number one hit...

BREEP BREEP BREEP BREEP BREEP

If you percieve music as pleasant entertainment, you'll like a song more after hearing it for the 10th time, than after the 1st. Just don't listen to it in a row. All popular things works like that, untill another one takes it's place. Popular are repeated, rather than better.

Everyone learns different. I can't just study a textbook because I don't remember anything. Sure I can read it over and over again and memorise it but after the test it's all gone. On the other hand, I still remeber a lot of what old teachers were saying, I even have their voices and faces printed in my mind like a videotape, as clear as fresh water, and it was a bunch of years ago.

As we autodidacts have learned.

This is so true. I am a medical student and there are many lectures available all over the internet which many use as their primary source. But soon I realized that wasn’t working and I wasn’t retaining much. Even if I did understood I forgot in a few weeks. I was thinking why this was happening and deduced reading textbooks is what I should be doing. Sure, you need to revise what you read multiple times, but the understanding you get when you read the text due to your brain working harder is much better. I should have thought about that before and took up the habit of reading sooner. Now my current understanding is: Textbooks are the first choice and if the topic is very difficult, supplement it with a lecture.

You are one good looking goomba....

This will actually work in your favor if you truly believe that you are attractive. This is because the more you repeat it, and the more confident you are about that statement , the more other people will start to believe you. Also because of the fact that attractiveness is subjective -- attractiveness is in the eye of the beholder and thus anyone can be perceived to be attractive.

Yep, and the Democrats have used that evil trick very effectively against Trump...just keep repeating "Trump is a racist!" and a lot of people will believe it even though if you ask them to provide something he did or said that could be considered racist they can not think of one single example.

It's ironic because if you speak the truth over and over they say it's a lie and the speaker is being manipulative. It's much harder to get someone to believe the truth than a lie

@@draugami Every - literally EVERY newspaper around the world is. Sometimes propaganda is more sophisticated, sometimes less, but it's always there.

​@@derrickmcadoo3804 You do realize that goes both ways, that "news is fake" becomes truth if you repeat it enough? That is what I've always found most hypocritical/ironic about people who complain about "sheeple". They are just being sheeple in the opposite direction. The best way to cut through all the BS is to just ignore all media (of all kinds), and only look at scientific studies and experiments. It's not infallible but it's much better than what most people do which is trust THEIR media and assume everything against it is fake.

Nothing can be more filled with propaganda than CNN.

@@MaxLohMusic yeah but if you know the media is always lying, you can use it to triangulate the Truth by assuming the opposite of whatever they say.

#CognitiveEaseCeption

but if that were the case and it works, doesn't that mean cognitive ease exists?

here's the deal though, hypothetically if the phenomenon did exist, but it was not called cognitive ease, it would sadly not be true.

Thank you for putting into words why I love Team Fortress 2

Can you elaborate on "cognitive patterns" as it relates to gaming? Is that essentially a fancy way of saying "gameplay loop"

@@Scroolewse I will give you an example. There is a theory in cognition: when you provide characters that - don't - have details in some elements of design (eg they don't have facial expressions), it can be easier for various target groups to identify with them as it is easier to put themselves in the characters' position. Also this technique leaves more room to the players imagination and the game does not have the feel of a movie. Those are some of the many aspects of "cognitive patterns", hope this helps.

@@Scroolewse Another example is the clear distinction between good and evil in story telling. The game The Last of Us 2 met massive criticism because it blurred the lines of good and evil. This caused a massive amount of gamers cognitivie distress. @Deathrasher, you picked a greeat topic for a dissertation.

Then initiate you own research to prove or disprove it both sides of the argument. e.g. History is Written by Victors???

Well then, if it actually isn't true then you have nothing to worry about. The group you're desperately trying to tell people you're in by having pepe as your RU-vid picture and have snowflake in your name is proof of the entire concept. Thousands of those people were conned and continue to be conned because of that little bubble they sit in. History will laugh at that group and it will be given as examples to gaslighting and fascism in modern society and governments. Very interesting time to live in. I guess we can thank the spread of information and the internet for just how well this whole fiasco will be remembered.

Yep, in physics that just leads me to a rabbit hole of "why does this happen" turning into a string of "how it happens" with a floor of because its how the universe is. I guess fundamentally everything will trace back to the question of why are we ? I don't know if we'll ever answer that.

TBF this isn't a new phenomenon, why do you think almost all of Europe was happy to live in relative squalor for like 1000 years, nearly never questioning anything that was told to them by their local Kings/ Religious leaders/ etc? If anything I'd say societally speaking we're better critical thinkers now than we have ever been. We just need to learn that we shouldn't believe everything we read/hear on the internet, but it's understandable that people can be drawn in to believing things online easily as the internet is still relatively new and we are only just realising in recent years that we should take what we read on it with a pinch of salt.

Thinking critically isn’t always as good as it may seem since it makes you more indecisive and skeptical which also tends to give critical thinkers trust issues and paranoia leading to loneliness and difficulty to make new friends or “fit in” with society and other people

Your history teachers have utterly failed you.

And that is deliberate. Critical thinking is something the ruling class does NOT want the working class to engage in. Therefore, they use every trick in the book to instill cognitive ease in the non-elites to keep them from dissenting from the status quo.

Repetition makes me suspicious

Repetition legitimizes

"Repetition legitimizes" -- Adam Neely

The artists use this method systemathically and this is most obvious in music (minimalism). Other fields are hypnotisism, and other religious phenomena.

That's why he ended it by talking about how it can be a good thing too.

Reminds me a bit of The Stanley Parable.

Yeah! Like the more times he said "the more something is repeated the truer it sounds" the more odd it felt, like. Surely I'm not the only one getting suspicious.

If it works, it works... True within itself.

Funny how right at the start of the video, I mimicked the sound of the intro with a "whiiiish" sound...

hence the *illusion* of truth

I know now that this was the intended meaning. But considering quite a lot of people seem to be under the impression pluralism in science means that either 'everything is equally true' or 'nothing is true at all', this title could also be read as: Truth is an illusion. At least that's what I begrudgingly expected to hear in this video before actually watching it. English is not my native language, though, so maybe my instincts are a bit off. ;) No offense intended, anyhow.

I know this will shock you, but youtube has a button for that now. ;)

What about the illusion of truth via misinformation that seems almost logical. Like dogs have 4 legs, do they really? when a leg has a knee and two front 'legs' on a dog have no knee but elbows? Arms have elbows, so dogs really have 2 legs and 2 arms. Explain that enough times to people and the world is flat.

You have to find the truth first, sometimes occluded by illusion.

Underated comment

Actually, the sphericity of the Earth is not the same concept as heliocentrism.

> a flat earther > intense cognitive functioning pick one

flat earther hearing : "earth revolves" immediately shuts down all cognitive channels.

Flatearthers comprise only 1% of 1% of 1% of total world population. So, they are totally irrelevant. About 30% of the world population don't believe that humans walked on the Moon. A huge number of people. So, why is the world media focused on Flatearthers (which comprise 8000 believers) rather than 2.5 billion of people who don't believe that astronauts landed on the Moon? Because Flatearthers are easy to disprove, and not very numerous. So, weak. On the other hand, Moon landings are hard to prove, and you don't wanna mess with 2.5 billion of people, who may actually be right.

The song is good!! 😃

Trump is one example.

Sometimes the debunking is later debunked, leading to another round of debunking.

Well said!

The whole "public debate" on politics is largely two groups of people who have been indoctrinated with different, somewhat conflicting sets of ideas/slogans, that give them cognitive ease. "Whatever the Good Side is saying is true and good, whatever the Bad Side is saying is bad and/or false," is an heuristic that spares people from the cognitive strain of analyzing more carefully and independently each issue.

Apply this concept to Hillary's speech style, and you will understand how carefully it is designed to cause the desired effect. Fixed it for you, you had a slight typo there.

Kevo F can you focus on one topic at the time, or are you so polarized that you cannot read the name "Trump" without attacking the other candidate, which was not supported by comment in any sense? As much as I severely dislike Hillary for many reasons, her speech style does not follow the patterns of simplicity and repetition aiming to create cognitive ease as much as Trump's style does. Pick any Trump interview, debate or speech and look at the size, complexity, variety and repetition of words. Hillary lies in a completely different manner - notice, I'm not judging one to be better than other, this is not a comparison of value, simply the description of a phenomenon.

+Lucas Balaminut I don't think it's that it's designed... it's just that trump isn't the smartest man and he has to keep repeating himself because he can't think of anything else :p But really I agree, he's an awful person yet he has so many followers shows something about how good he is at giving speaches, also how whoever wrote them must be a pretty smart guy (and how odd that people buy all his crap)

No Skill Just Luck I disagree that he is not smart. I think he is pretty smart, not an intellectual, but smart enough to realize how to best communicate with a large and broad spectrum of people. His message can be understood by anyone, even a 10 year old can understand him, it is simple, direct, and satisfies their supporters need for inverse-rationalization. Repetition is a very known salesman tactic. I see Trump as a salesman of a scam product, like a pyramid scheme or miracle pills, except that his presidential candidate persona is the product he is selling and the entire US is the scam target.

Apply it to the memes propagated by the Left: "Diversity is our strength" is actually bunk. Studies have proved that diversity harms societies.

Yes but that makes sense, doesn't it? Same goes for me, I hate these "celebrities", I hate reality shows etc. but I believe that's also because I don't often use social medias or watch TV.

CoWinkKeyDinkInc Not my specifically, but I hear ya. It is important, however, to distinguish mindless repetition, and repetitive testing and experimenting (scientific method).

Val Hakun How do you know that your beliefs didn't come from repetition? Religion isn't something everyone just easily switches to.

CoWinkKeyDinkInc My religious beliefs did. Through the typical early age indoctrination. I didn't switch it off easily later in life, but I also didn't switch it off mindlessly (like it was acquired). It was through skepticism, learning, testing and verifying, and so on - that's why I'm saying not all repetition is the same. The point of the video is that repetion can make one believe that false/uncertain is true - a method that often brings people into a religion, but typically not out of it. There is an important difference between dishonest, mantric, untouchable repetition and experimental repetition that follows evidence.

When I was involved in religion, a big part of it was just repetition of certain ideas. In fact, the central feature of the religion was meditating for hours a day while repeating some words. And have you ever gone to any kind of church service regularly? In my experience, religion is largely simply about repetition. Largely, but certainly not only.
