Social Cryptomnesia – The idea that as a social group we tend to recall that change has taken place but tend to forget about the steps that brought it about (the protest, strikes, riots etc.)
•
People are too egocentric to let themselves believe they were ever against the minority view - as a result they don't really know why they've adopted the new view they have, or where it came from
• As a society, we have changed... but does anyone remember how those changes came about?
