“ why facts don’t change minds”

Because liberal arts morons are taught “if the facts don’t support the theory then so much worse for the facts”

What kills me is that liberal art PhDs keep asking this question…. It’s like they don’t even understand their own methodology…

Which is really dumb,..

“ Hegel notoriously maintained that if facts contradict theory, then “um so schlimmer für die Fakten”—so much the worse for the facts.”

Why the outrage?

This is what is taught… should be of no surprise…
