going to a person or media to 'confirm' their belief or opinion that they will most likely never change and already know, but then still insist on going to said media to (this is where the word would be) (justify their belief?)
to feel better about themselves and their opinion by going to a place that agrees with them and attracting others who also agree with the 'thing'

it's similar to justifying their belief but with an ego and 'superior complex' mindset.
can anyone help lol.
