Consequences of political bias:
1) Persistence of political division: Cognitive bias exacerbates conflicts between groups with different political views.
2) Difficulty in engaging in constructive dialogue and discussion: due to not accepting contrary information and trying to present it in a way that confirms pre-existing attitudes.
3) The influence of emotions on decision-making: emotions and political self-identification can prevail over objective analysis in the process of political decision-making.
