    I mean, this… isn’t surprising at all?

    Blustering around confidently exploits how … duller human brains interpret factuality.

    Moneky brain see confidence?

    Monkey brain know they must be correct!

    This is the basis of … well, con artists, you know, confidence artists, a whole lot of PUA type shit, uh, a whole lot of politics, a whole lot of marketing…, many debate and negotiation tactics/styles…

    Being a bullshitter is a common thing because bullshitting is broadly very effective.
