Why Smart People Believe Wrong Things

The same cognitive machinery that dissects flawed arguments can fortify mistaken ones. The same analytical discipline that demands evidence can selectively reinterpret it. Intelligence does not automatically align with reality. It aligns with coherence. And coherence feels like truth, even when it is not. This is not a failure of logic. It is a feature of human cognition. Richard Feynman once warned that the first principle is that you must not fool yourself — and that you are the easiest person to fool. He understood something unsettling: scientific brilliance does not immunize the mind against self-deception. It refines the mechanisms.
