How they manipulate you

[Image](https://) Greetings Everyday Spy, Have you ever wondered why, if you’re a Republican, you enjoy watching Fox News and actively dislike CNN (and vice versa)? Have you ever wondered why there are always three popcorn sizes at the cinema? Or why stores want you to use a card rather than cash? Or why companies hire so-called “influencers” to create real-life-like videos of their products? None of that is by chance. Companies, political parties, bad bosses, toxic partners… they all use the fallacies in our thinking to manipulate us. These fallacies are called “cognitive biases” - thinking shortcuts our brains use to make decisions faster, in order to increase the chances of our survival in the wild. But as helpful as these shortcuts were tens of thousands of years ago, now they’re holding us back. And give dishonest people a powerful weapon to manipulate us. So if you want to protect yourself from their evil intentions, you need to know what these biases are… how they work… and how not to be their victim anymore.
