Someone (who chose not to be tagged in this post) asked this question:

How are some of us aware and appalled that this (misinformation) is happening and others just go all in with the conspiracies?

What do you all think? What makes the difference?

Please refrain from just calling people stupid, I know it can definitely feel that way, but we can do better than that.

@RickiTarr Some people are more easily brainwashed than others. I'd like to say it's all about critical thinking skills, but I don't think it ends there because some very intelligent people have been drawn into cults.
