There are different kinds of bias we have encountered in our daily lives and most of time, we are not aware of that specific bias. The bias I have generally encountered that is the “myside bias” that I have learned the tem while reading the assigned modules in the course. The ideas of the bias are retrieved from Elizabeth Kolbert’s “Why facts don’t change our minds”. The basic form of this bias is so deeply wired with the mind that we cannot judge what is right and what is wrong because we only see what we want to see.
