Totally agree. However, I think we can all agree this is a very left leaning site, and because of that I generally see pro-left things, and anti-right things.
Feels like every shitty thing a right wing nut does gets posted here, but does every shitty thing a left leaning politician get seen here? Probably not.
There’s no magical cure, as you said, it’s human nature. I just wanted to point out to you (and other readers mostly) that it’s very easy to overlook these biases, and end up turning those biases into one’s own reality.





You could buy PUT options. Pay $$$ upfront, and if stock drops you get to buy shares for low price, and sell them at IPO price.
Your max loss of the price of the contract upfront, so you can never get too wrecked.
