Conspiratorial Mind: Meta-Analytic Review of Motivational and Personological Correlates
The main reasons for being re- or blue-pilled.
As you read this post, you are much more likely to be classified by the officialdom as a conspiracy theory prone person. And, we now have an all-encompassing study for that: “The Conspiratorial Mind: A Meta-Analytic Review of Motivational and Personological Correlates” (American Psychological Association, submitted Apr. 2022).
It’s an arduous reading, so I will present to you the main result only:
The bigger the black dot, the more relevant the trait is.
Thus, being agreeable and trusting make one, banally, not a conspiracy theorist, a.k.a. blue-pilled. Trust (being gullible) is the most important determinant of being blue-pilled.
On the other hand, being open/extraverted/emotional/worried (anxiety)/RWA (Right-Wing Authoritarian) make one prone to conspiracies. RWA, it turns out, is the most important determinant of being conspiratorial.
As it’s trivial about the blue-pilled, RWA for being red-pilled requires another Google search on what the hell it is. As it turns out,
In psychology, the right-wing authoritarian (RWA) is a personality type that describes somebody who is highly submissive to their authority figures, acts aggressively in the name of said authorities, and is conformist in thought and behavior.
Wow, that is a surprise. I’d bet the house that “highly submissive to their authority figures, acts aggressively in the name of said authorities, and is conformist in thought and behavior” describes perfectly the Covidian type of personality as we’ve learned to know it:
My conclusion: the Covidians are the true conspiratorial minds, the poor gullible types just go with the flow. We here tend to be neither, according to Science?
Your thoughts, dear readers?
Covidians are classic authoritarian followers. They have all the markers and they're always in lockstep. The refuseniks, in contrast, are all over the place ideologically as well as in personality type.
Trust is massive. I would argue it is the most important.
And it is something prone to change, unlike many other factors in the list.
A contrarian from birth. There was a time when I trusted most things, all people, and the (now)obvious lies from governments. Hard to square that, but the trust vector was stronger than the other.
Then some things happened. A devastating trial, or series thereof. A glimpse behind the Kabuki. Trust shattered and isn't coming back. Much like critical reasoning in the masses. Or immune systems.
And it is like each lie has its own flashing red light now. Each cabal shyster stands out like the Luciferian puppet they are. Even without a sense of smell anymore, the sulfur is pungent.
I have no doubt that the Monster employs more psychologists and psychiatrists than any other domain. More than New Mockingbird Media, filled as it is with them and ex-TLA Agency types. Those nice souls that set up Prism and other mass surveillance tools while working in/for the DC Sewer.
They mapped out our responses. They shaped our thinking, our behaviours. Over generations.
If they didn't leave anything to chance, then what is their next play?
Are we seeing it now in France? Ethnic cleansing against those few who will stand against the invading/marauding horde? Islamists being used as a battering ram, as ever, by another group?
Peace.
