Cognitive dissonance is a psychological term describing the uncomfortable tension that may result from having two conflicting thoughts at the same time, or from engaging in behavior that conflicts with one's beliefs, or from experiencing apparently conflicting phenomena.
In simple terms, it can be the filtering of information that conflicts with what you already believe, in an effort to ignore that information and reinforce your beliefs.

This Video is, kind of, an Appendix to "What I Stand for" [see: "other videos"]....
...In a divided Country, we must be diligent, critical thinkers. Pogo said: "The Enemy is US!". Just my opinion, but...:
**
...With each Party; each Race; and each
divided bit of angst, thrown into the Sandbox, the Terrorists get closer to their goal. It is, (I repeat, only my opinion) our divisions; Our, tearing apart of each other, daily, which give grist to the UBL's of the World.
**Only by making our way, through the divisions, the dissonance, can we succeed.
**Taking a stand, for Peace, entails holding Peace in our hands...speaking it, amongst ourselves, and others.
**I can remember, I time in our Nation, when a fat, Russian Man, banged his shoe upon a podium, and proclaimed, "We will bury you, without firing a shot."
**Do not let Race, Politics, and the struggles between the haves & have not's, (documented & "undocumented"), blind you.
**We are all in this together.
**The whole World IS watching.
**
This film is the culmination of years of thought.
I stand on the side of History. Not on the Right, or the Left.
**
Peace, is believing.
Hope, is what comes of love.
Understanding, the "other"
is the only way.
