What Drives Conspiracism

The dominant culture has gone mad. Of course lonely people on the internet believe crazy things.

Here is an attempt to get at some of what’s behind conspiracism, the rising belief in and promotion of political conspiracy theories. In recent years those theories have been heavily associated with QAnon: that a cabal of child sexual abusers running a world-wide trafficking ring has been a major force in opposing Donald Trump ; that “the storm,” the day the cabal is exposed and jailed, is coming. In the past year, it includes the charge the presidential election was stolen through state-by-state fraud. In the past week there is increasing talk of the coming “reinstatement,” in which proof of election fraud is revealed through state audits, previously reported results are overturned, and Donald Trump is inaugurated again.

Right now our country needs real truth telling. These lawmakers are going to Arizona on a scavenger hunt, trying to find votes that simply do not exist. It’s not only dangerous but it also distracts us from the issues we need to be dealing with.
