Deberíamos extraer satisfacción del hecho de estar en lo correcto, pero no del hecho de que nosotros (y nuestro grupo) estamos en lo correcto y los demás están equivocados. Es el camino hacia el fracaso de la racionalidad. Eso es lo que piensa Robin Hanson:
We feel a deep pleasure from realizing that we believe something in common with our friends, and different from most people. We feel an even deeper pleasure letting everyone know of this fact. This feeling is EVIL. Learn to see it in yourself, and then learn to be horrified by how thoroughly it can poison your mind. Yes evidence may at times force you to disagree with a majority, and your friends may have correlated exposure to that evidence, but take no pleasure when you and your associates disagree with others; that is the road to rationality ruin.
