Mar 10, 2022 at 17:36 comment added jimm101 Is the focus here that the belief is commonly held and unquestioned, or that it is comforting / useful but known to be an illusion? Both? The proposed duplicate only covers the first.

Nov 1, 2020 at 22:05 comment added chasly - supports Monica Please give us a sample sentence with a blank space _______ where the word would go. For example I could guess platitude or fool's paradise, but without a sentence to put it in, I don't know if it would fit. There are loads of possibilities.
