Motivated Reasoning;

Motivated reasoning is the tendency to find arguments and evidence that support what we want to believe, while ignoring or dismissing information that contradicts our preferred conclusion. This bias is particularly strong when the belief in question aligns with our self-interest or benefits us in some way.

They have no incentive to investigate conflicting evidence.
