* ''VideoGame/{{Bloodborne}}'':This In ''VideoGame/BaldursGateIII'', followers of the GodOfEvil Shar are {{Straw Nihilist}}s who advocate for this, to the point that their enclave in the titular city sells LaserGuidedAmnesia services to the public with the one customer you meet having [[TheLostLenore surrendered his memories of his late wife]]. TokenEvilTeammate Shadowheart was a TykeBomb who frequently had her memories altered to ensure her compliance[[spoiler:, and if she's made Shar's TheChosenOne she has to perform a TargetedHumanSacrifice of [[SelfMadeOrphan her own parents]], with Shar erasing her memories of the act immediately afterward to retain her loyalty]].

* ''ComicBook/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy'': In Otherone's own words, if he thought about how he destroyed his entire planet he'd go mad with grief and if he thought about how someone smarter would use his power he'd go mad with fear. So he doesn't think about either of those things and maintains an airheaded optimism, because it's safer to be stupid than mad.

* In ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'', Dale Gribble's friends use this as justification for keeping him LockedOutOfTheLoop regarding his ChocolateBaby and unfaithful wife. As far as Dale is concerned he has a great son, [[UglyGuyHotWife a bombshell of a wife]] who financially supports him, and TrueCompanions to surround himself with. If the truth came out he would either lose everything and end up even worse than StrawLoser Bill ([[DrivenToSuicide assuming he even survives the mental trauma]]), or perform some [[InsaneTrollLogic Herculean mental gymnastics]] to ignore it [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} like he has so many times before]]. A common [[AlternativeCharacterInterpretation fan theory]] is that he ''does'' know, but is simply ObfuscatingStupidity.
