Confirmation bias is shaping our world in ways many don't realise, especially through social media algorithms designed to keep us scrolling and engaged with content that reinforces our existing beliefs.

• Social media platforms track what you click, like, comment on, and even how long you hover over posts
• Algorithms feed you more of what you've shown interest in, creating echo chambers where everyone thinks the same way
• During COVID, people were divided based on what content they engaged with about vaccines, lockdowns, and policies
• The Charlie Kirk incident shows how quickly social media pushes people to opposite sides without waiting for facts
• Challenge yourself by following people you disagree with to gain a more balanced perspective
• Turn off your devices regularly and talk to real people in the real world
• Remember that someone's differing opinion isn't wrong – you just don't agree with it
