The State of Denial
The aftermath may be defined by a deep state of denial: refusing to acknowledge the consequences of what happened, dismissing uncomfortable evidence, and clinging to the belief that victory itself proves they were right. Instead of reassessing their assumptions, many will double down on the narrative they already believe, reinterpret every setback as temporary, and treat criticism as confirmation of their own position. The result is a collective reluctance to confront reality,a psychological comfort zone where admitting that things may not have gone as expected becomes harder than defending the story they have already told themselves.
