“While both narratives and facts can be cherry-picked to support a position, personal narratives, as the authors point out, are unimpugnable. A conclusion drawn from facts, on the other hand, can be disputed and disproven and, thus, science and society should prefer fact-based positions.” (Van Bavel et al., 2021, p. 2)
“As these studies show, what is true gains less respect than what one might feel to be true.” (Van Bavel et al., 2021, p. 2)
