Cognitive dissonance is a term for the state of discomfort felt when two or more modes of thought contradict each other. The clashing cognitions may include ideas, beliefs, or the knowledge that one has behaved in a certain way.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Hello. So... when Trump and his fanatic supporters strongly believe that an election fraud was committed and absolutely deny Supreme Courts stating that there was "no credible or reliable evidence" of fraud, are they suffering cognitive dissonance...? No offence to them. It just popped up in my head while reading the meme.

There is a pandemic of cognitive dissonance going around. Imagine if society crumbles because of a mental disorder rather than physical disease
