    Oh I’ve read about this. There was some sort of longitudinal study about like abortion rights or gay rights or something, and people who had shitty views in the past legitimately could not remember that they used to believe that.

    It’s all about protecting the ego, I think.

    I think it was mentioned in this book https://www.davidmcraney.com/howmindschangehome

      Gaslighting to protect their ego sounds about right. Funny I still remember all my old cringy positions but they can’t seem to bear the damage of admitting they were wrong.
