What is the Bias Blind Spot?

Solutions?

“In psychology we call it the ‘bias blind spot.’”

For example, both liberals and conservatives claim freedom as one of their core values, and both sides have similar blind spots when it comes to freedom.“We're happy to give freedom to people for the things that we think are morally right, and not for things we think are morally wrong,” said Ditto.Conservatives push for economic freedom, but not freedom around things that they think are morally wrong, like gay marriage or abortions.“Liberals show exactly the opposite pattern,” said Ditto. “They're comfortable with freedom when it comes to sexual behavior, and less so in economic behavior.”When It Comes To Politics You Aren't as Rational As You Think
