because "Doing your own research" is far easier nowadays than building the habit of thinking critically.
Add COVID-anxiety, a chaotic narcissistic Orange clown and compound with the lack of survival problems to solve for the everyday life in a westernized society and (where appropriate) a good dose of American exceptionalism.

Reading the comments here are... well... painful. A lot of the statements just lack a total sense of awareness or sense of irony. I'm not gonna name names, but the actual views some of you hold, the way you look at the world.... it's so distorted and detached from reality, it genuinely causes a wave of sadness to wash over me.
God, it's so depressing. This isn't going to end well, for anybody.
I might break my vow to never return to 4chan, just to go on /pol/ and spread an even more outlandish theory to discredit QAnon. Perhaps the only thing that can defeat bullshit, is even more feculent bullshit.

I am also saddened by how easy it is to divert the world from the truth.
all these people believing that Trump is fighting the pedophiles.
this is what happens when you allow lizard people to spray chemtrails over everyone.

I will name names. In this thread, Mr. Hallow is the worst offender, followed by Runaway and trailed a distant third by Uzzard, who at this point is like Eth and can't tell reality from his own "trolling" any longer. Why not name names? Not saying name and shame, since "shame" presupposes these skinwalkers are capable of social interaction, but why not call it out?

Because I don't want to make a bunch of enemies all at once :^P
Arguing with deluded people almost never works. I've tried, oh god I've tried. It's futile. They usually get angry and decide you're the one in the wrong immediately after, even if you were only trying to help.
I know that from personal experience arguing with people with things ranging from schizophrenia to dementia, and personal experience with OCD.

What are they going to do to you exactly? Bitch and moan and whine that mean nasty ol' Subsentient is calling them out on their bullshit?

Once again, details please. I'll note yet again that we have an opinion paper based on two flimsy polls and David Icke quotes being treated by some people as truth. A narrative isn't truth automatically just because it's a cool story, bro.

Shut up, khallow. You know that thing we talked about? And you wanted me to remind you when you were doing it again? You're doing it again.

Nope. I don't know what you're talking about. You're AC, remember?
