Henrik SundströmWho Believes Conspiracy Theories?
1. More people believe that the 2016 U.S. election was fraudulent than that the 2020 election was.
2. Zoomers and Millennials are more prone to conspiracy beliefs than Xers and Boomers.
3. Around one-in-five Zoomers and Millennials report believing that the Air Force is hiding evidence about the Dakota Crash… an event the survey makers made up.

dee_le_brunI'm not religious at all, but I found this bible quote today while doing some work:
"The LORD detests lying lips, but he delights in people who are trustworthy." Proverbs 12:22
How TF do our current crop of RW politicians claim to be Christian? How is it possible that the voters who call themselves Christian support them?
Increasingly, parts of fundamentalist Christianity look like a giant conspiracy cult. I did read that in some quarters of the happy clapping community the churches feel that they're looking influence to things like QAnon....
Weird times ...

Daily Twerk ✅The Conspiracy Theory mindset
A study from Emory University psychologists has shown that it isn't just a simple case of uneducated or disturbed people buying into conspiracy theories.
Lead author Shauna Bowes, a doctoral student in clinical psychology at Emory University has summarised that.
"Conspiracy theorists are not all likely to be simple-minded, mentally unwell folks—a portrait which is routinely painted in popular culture,” she added, “Instead, many turn to conspiracy theories to fulfill deprived motivational needs and make sense of distress and impairment.”

There may be a very small chance of some damage, but it is far from proven, given currently licensed frequencies and sufficient distance from transmitting devices. The #conspiracy_theory level stuff blows past me because it takes too much faith in the competence of the conspirators.
