Hey Anons. Can any of you tell me if there is a proper word for this or if I should keep using my own made up term?
It's what I call "The Alex Jones Effect".
Definition: The state of realizing that those who control you are lying to you and then gravitating towards the most opposite set of ideas you can find, regardless of their validity and in many cases just as fake.
It has nothing to do with AJ really but is more of a general observation, I only call it that because watching AJ is was the first time I noticed it.
Another good (maybe even better) example of this effect is Flat Earthers - A theory so easily disproven that you'd have to actively ignore facts to reach the conclusion.
