PizzaGate related because of yet another attempt to silence us before we out pedophiles in power. (It won't fuckin' work you deplorable scum)
A new study here is suggesting that people who believe in conspiracy theories have "a fundamental cognitive problem". The article reads:
sometimes people sense danger even when there is no pattern to recognize — and so their brains create their own.
I would argue that this is far more prevalent in constructed leftist beliefs such as the illusion of privilege and the wage gap. I guess when people can't refute evidence gaslighting is the only way to silence them, especially at such a pivotal moment in the PizzaGate narrative as the Hollywood discoveries.

I work in psychological research and just to say this isn't a particularly reputable journal, it's got an impact factor of 1.9 and is ranked 28th out of all journals in the area of social psychology. Personally I think questioning the narrative we're spoonfed by the media (now proven biased beyond doubt thanks to Wikileaks) is a sign of superior intellect 🙂

Not my line of work, but it does seem like a lot of the top dogs display a number of peychopathic traits, HRC being a prime example https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychopathy_Checklist

I think you're correct: kakistocracy.

I’ve seen that term mentioned a lot but never went to the trouble of looking it up. Sums the whole thing up nicely (sadly enough), thanks for expanding my vocabulary 🙂
