So, today I decided to take you inside the mind of a conspiracy theorist to let you know how they see the world. Remember, I am a former conspiracy theorist myself. i know how they think. I know what they are trying to do, and I know the feelings that are motivating their behavior. I have been disheartened when seeking out documentaries on conspiracy theorists. The people they are portraying, mostly illiterate Trump supporters, as being conspiracy theorists are nothing more than a stupid stereotype. I'm not saying that paranoid schizophrenics cannot become conspiracy theorists, anyone can. However, making outrageous claims such as "we need to listen to conspiracy theorists more" or "we need to stop making fun of them" is just incorrect. First of all, as I state in the video, a stranger will never get through to a conspiracy theorist. Conspiracy theorists are suspicious of strangers, and generally tend to keep to their own. This is evidenced by Dr. Fauci's low approval rating, not to mention the mistrust of intellectuals and medical professionals in America. They simply do not trust strangers. So, arguing that you can kill these people with kindness is just bizarre. They will interpret your kindness as being motivated by some dastardly plot. It is much better to be brutally honest with conspiracy theorists, especially if you don't know them. At least then they will leave you alone. Only relatives and friends can reach conspiracy theorists, people they trust that would have no motivation to turn on them. Yet I am hearing more and more people say that they are giving up on their friends and relatives that support conspiracy theories. This is not a good sign. These people are the only ones who can convince conspiracy theorists to think twice.The only other thing that may work is to leave them to their own devices so that they lose everything, but this is also a sadistic approach, one that will make them despise humanity, and possibly harm themselves or others. We are playing a dangerous game here, and no one seems to notice. These people believe they can overthrow the government, and they came pretty close in January. Their actions could be that of delusion, however they are also consciously waging an all out war on the social contract, and society in general. They are very hostile toward us, and our way of life. They are our enemies, not our friends, and they should be treated as such. And, with a host of prominent celebrities, world leaders, and quack doctors on their side, they are slowly, but surely making it so that our new normal will be the normal. It is time to understand that we are losing the battle for hearts and minds. We cannot sit around entertaining these people forever. Either they vaccinate or they must be punished for harming themselves and others. It's just reality. Of course the media talks about them, but that is only because they can make a buck. Besides, the media's "care" for children is rooted in them wanting to get people back to school. You know, the schools that couldn't even teach children that pandemics were a problem. And the media's concern for the elderly is obviously because they know that elderly people watch the news. If news was a millennial past time you would hear nothing but how we need to take more care of those between the ages of 25 and 40. It's all meaningless. Besides, we should not be wasting our time deciding who deserves the most pity. We all do. The time for tiny violins has passed. We need to identify the problem, and find a solution.
