As one's support for a particular candidate increases, one's tendency to only notice flamebait directed at that candidate also increases.


Practical application: Clearly, there cannot be more attacks on Hillary than Obama and more attacks on Obama than Hillary in GDP -- the two events are mutually exclusive. And yet, given the complaints of both sides, this would appear to be the case. My theory, then, explains how it is possible for the most strident Obama supporters to complain about the massive amounts of Obama attacks in GDP, while at the exact same moment, the most vociferous Clinton supporters scream about all the Hillary hatred.


I'll be demanding my Nobel Prize forthwith.
