VIDEO: Why Your Brain Sucks at Detecting Lies
Added 2024-06-14 12:01:01 +0000 UTCFrom the Story Producer:
We went deep on this one - reviewing countless studies and talking to expert scientists to get a granular understanding of what we know about what’s happening in our brains when we receive information.
It wasn’t enough to tell you “humans like to gather new information” we wanted to understand what that would literally look like in your brain – and why, as a species, this behavior has stuck with us for so long.
And we were all shocked to learn how conditioned we are to believe things that make us feel comfortable and good.
We hope you enjoy!

I had a sense the political accounts I follow were doing this to me, in essence building my tower, I deleted my social media and going to find better sources for news.
