Flash Forward is a show about possible (and not so possible) future scenarios. What would the warranty on a sex robot look like? How would diplomacy work if we couldn’t lie? Could there ever be a fecal transplant black market? (Complicated, it wouldn’t, and yes, respectively, in case you’re curious.)

Narrative Armor: Why Some Stories Become Immune to the Truth
Manage episode 491377647 series 2891942

When it comes to deception, everything is about story.
And the stories people cling hardest to are ones that aren't solely about information... they are about self-protection. They explain the world. They spark emotion. They reinforce identity.
And once we believe them, we don’t just share them…We defend them.
In this issue of Deceptive Minds, I explore why some narratives become immune to fact-checking, critique, or correction — and how we end up reinforcing falsehoods just by wanting them to be true.
🛡️ Why emotionally charged stories resist disproof
🧠 How narratives come preloaded with defenses (mockery, morality, tribalism)
📜 Real-world & historical examples of story-based immunity
🧩 And how to tell when you're dealing with a belief that's been bulletproofed
Because when deception takes the form of a story you want to believe… truth never even gets a chance.
Deceptive Minds: newsletter about how we are fooled, how we fool ourselves, and what we can do about it.
