Conspiracy Theories: JFK, RFK, and Stevie Wonder Can See!

I posted this in the Covid thread but it seems more appropriate here:

I can't recommend the article enough. Click through to the source links; some of those studies are fascinating, with horrifying implications.

It runs both ways. The Q survivors reddit site is also filled with stories of parents whose children disappeared down the RWNJ rabbit hole. The article is going to blare about BoomerBrain because they know their audience's clickity click vanities, but it's really ConservaBrain. That side of the political spectrum is in really bad shape cognitively.

The good news is, we have a more organized, well-funded, and vibrant social psychology infrastructure now. We are basically getting a redo to do all the studies and analyses of 1920's Germany reactionaries. We are going to emerge from this (assuming we survive) with a much more thorough understanding of how fascism takes root in righties' brains and what to do to inoculate, or at least contain, them.

Amazing article on people insisting they know more about a subject than their children that have actual expertise on said subject.


Lesson: propaganda works.

Apparently, this was a thing, but we missed it.

My favorite conspiracy is everything will be okay in the end.

That's right. Stop being hysterical!

I have to wonder if Flaggy was out there waiting for JFK Jr's resurrection.

Then again, I need brain bleach for even thinking of him.

There are no salt and vinegar chips. There are only vinegar chips.

My favorite conspiracy is still "everything will be okay."

Mine is "there's a force for good in the universe."

It's tied with "there's a force for evil in the universe."

A Christian Neo-Hegelian anti-feminist anti-anti-racist homeopathic conspiracy theory against climate change.

We most definitely did NOT land on the moon.

An actual conspiracy.

"All of the birds died in 1986 due to Reagan killing them and replacing them with spies that are now watching us. The birds work for the bourgeoisie."

It's from a two year old joke on TikTok.

A+ for, presumably, working the Chernobyl disaster into it.
