I’ve been calling it a mental illness for at least a decade. I suspect that a constant exposure to disinformation induces a state similar to narcissism, with severe empathetic impairment, but there is a clear corruption to their logic and how they process information, as evidenced by the constant double-think — holding contradictory beliefs and opinions simultaneously — and defaulting to negative/positive opinions about anything based almost entirely on logical fallacies, and a child-like reasoning of “goodies and baddies”.

“my abortion was different”

“won’t someone think of the children” but also let em starve and die in a mass shooting.

“Trans and gays are pedophiles” but also my teams pedos and sex criminals have my undying support.

There are literally thousands of examples like this daily. I consider religion — which teaches you to trust your feefees, “just have faith”, and reject critical thought — to be the main source of this logical corruption and mental illness.

I feel like common sense is more a standard mental immune system function that helps prevent the infection from taking hold. These are susceptible populations, though, essentially immunocompromised.

So, I suppose we need to take some MAGA, weaken it with formaldehyde or something, and then inject that into people’s brains to give the brain a chance to fight back before it gets overwhelmed.

Combine that with 40 years of Republicans slashing education funding and you’re on to something.

microplastics, everywhere from the balls to the brain.

Their leader tries to force himself into skirts. Forcing them to wear skirts might work though.

We’re not arguing on bad faith you are!
