I agree. Be bold & fight for your ideas. But admit when you’re wrong. Too many people refuse to admit defeat. EOWilson has (maybe) defeated @RichardDawkins on group selection but RD won’t admit it. That is why I lead with “I’m probably wrong.” Being right is mathematically rare.https://twitter.com/Plinz/status/1083788488011669511 …

Yes. But you see how intransigent people are (I’m the worst at this tbh). I mean it’s real WORK to admit you’re wrong. It hurts, man. Ya know? So it takes effort to do it... and well, we naturally seek homeostasis; it seems admitting error may be too metabolically expensive ;)
