Nukes Don't Exist, Missing Time, Targeted Individuals, The Rapture, Planet X, Gesara/Nesara, Space Isn't Real, etc.
It seems like a lot of these theories are attractive to individuals who have trouble grasping abstract concepts but who also have an accurate sense that the people in charge are lying.
Not trying to make an ad hominem here, but if you ask the people who believe in these things about any specifics, they generally just shut down.
Eg., ask a Chemtrail believer if anyone has ever identified the tail number of a plane spraying chemtrails using [say a telescope or flight-tracking website] so that it could be investigated further, they seem to just become confused, like they have never thought of any next logical step to further investigating their hypothesis. They'll usually respond by showing evidence that weather modification experiments have happened, not understanding that that is not itself evidence that the funny looking cloud they're pointing at is chemicals being sprayed by The Jesuits.
Am I wrong, or does it seem to be a failure of ability to reason abstractly combined with generalized suspicion of authority?
I do think that governments experiment with weather modification, what I'm talking about is the people who think that they can prove they are being sprayed with chemicals by pointing at a cloud they perceive as unusual. Or that the Earth is flat because they flew in a plane and didn't see a ball. Or that Victorian Era architecture must have been built by a mysterious ancient Russian civilization because they don't understand how building foundations/pilings work, or that architects used to be trained in classical aesthetics and building techniques.
Am I wrong about this?
Is the well-documented deceitfulness of societal "experts" causing a reversion to medieval-style superstitious beliefs among a significant percentage of the population?
