I suppose it comes back to the allegory of the cave, though I really like the idea of them having an inverted Okham’s Razor, because it helps to visualize on which side of the thought prison we are. Because, you know, Trump supporters would argue that we are the one missing the big picture.
I love following weird shit on the web, so stumbled onto Qanon in late 2017 on 4chan, and have accounts on Telegram, GreatAwakening.win, Truth Social, and Rumble to keep up with the movement every day.
I mention all of the preceding by way of confirming that you are spot on. They constantly describe themselves as the true critical thinkers who are fighting the evil communist and/or fascist Left.
Yeah I have this particular alt-right website I visit every now and then due to my morbid curiosity. It is basically a mix of Q-stuff, Trump fans, pro-genocide folks and people who shouldn’t be there but who are completely lost. They certainly think highly of themselves.
One thing I noticed, is that beside the conspiracy stuff for which the evidence is paper-thin and mostly made up of air, they don’t say anything really. I mean it is all one-liner, posturing, saying how the left or the globalists are so bad, but they don’t actually discuss in-depth of anything but those made up facts. Take our little conversion right here, we’re trying really hard to understand them, you yourself shown empathy for them. Well, they don’t speak like that over there. They don’t try to understand “the left”, they don’t discuss facts or events outside the talking points except to agree on the conspiracy stuff. But man do they think that we’re literal morons.
That’s one thing I noticed with some people in real life. People with simple world views have very black and white answers. They feel very smart because they’re pretty damn sure they solved whatever it is they believe. When they hear other people talk with nuance, cite allegories and abstract concepts they are completely at a lost. Often, their first instinct is to believe that we are completely stupid for talking nonsense. After all, it is all very simple right? It must be because we struggle to understand that we’re having such strange discussions. Aaaannyway. It will get worst until it get better. The cure for ignorance is education, but a few generations have been lost already.
Makes sense.
