“[Self-deception] is a condition where your perception is systematically distorted in your favor. We also call it having an inward mindset. Most of us won't even see that we have this problem because we need the twisted perception to feel justified when we fail to see and respond to the humanity of others. To find justification, we tend to view ourselves as either better than or worse than the people around us.”
