It’s like gaslighting yourself. Huffing it hard. I honestly think it has to do with lower intelligence. You simplify things until they make sense to you, regardless if they make sense in actual reality, because you’re too stupid to comprehend anything more complex than racist Disney cartoons from the 30’s.
I think a lot of it is clever people who for whatever reason learned to fear thinking and all their brain mass has evolved to help them justify not doing it
This is what libertarian thought does to a person. People lose all sense of perspective.

Virtually every libertarian I know thinks that he’s a fucking genius, especially the really stupid ones.
There’s an amazing book. Combatting Cult Mind Control, but even intelligent people fall for this bullshit because it’s all emotional manipulation.
To a higher or a lesser degree, sure. I’m just saying, the statistics are firmly skewed in one direction.
