Facts Don’t Change Minds

i still think my favourite thing that's ever happened to me on the internet is the time a guy said "people change their minds when you show them facts" and I said "actually studies show that's not true" and linked TWO sources and he said "yeah well I still think it works"

A screenshot of a humorous tweet about someone claiming that facts change people’s minds. When confronted with studies disproving that claim, he refuses to change his own mind, creating an ironic example of the very phenomenon being discussed.
