Community bias

A community bias is a cognitive tendency to think in a certain way that can lead to systematic deviations from a standard of rationality or good judgment by giving disproportionate weight and importance to your own community and related extremely specific issues not looking at the big picture, other communities, people or other issues that are not related to your own community. Communities can be territorial or social or related to an extremely specific issue: i.e. parochial communities, same industry workers communities, trade unions communities, generational communities (young and old people), et cetera A community bias is a powerful form of group-think.
