The Psychology Behind the Paranoia

Quoted Text
There are many different psychologies at play here, from hardcore anti-government paranoids
who are likely to see a false-flag operation in everything from Waco to Sandy Hook, while others are
trying to make sense of a nonsensical tragedy. Conspiracy theories often seem entirely irrational or
even insane, they may actually be far more logical than they appear. At their core, conspiracy
theories are like folk tales, a search for an explanation for the unexplainable, a way of making sense
of the world. There’s no logic or meaning to what happened at Sandy Hook — a mentally
unbalanced lone gunman targeted defenseless children for no particular reason — and that is deeply
disturbing. So some people would rather invent an explanation to apply some kind (even if twisted)
logic to the event and to add some meaning to death of innocent children or deny their death
entirely and thus absolve the emotional trauma a bit. …

That’s why there’s such an obsession with trying to find multiple gunmen at Sandy Hook. …
“Without more than one shooter, you don’t have a conspiracy,” Goldberg said. By definition, you
need co-conspirators. The same was true, of course, with the assassination of President Kennedy,
perhaps the most theorized about event in American history. “If it’s just one nut the purpose and
meaning in the tragedy is gone, it’s stripped away. There’s no meaning, there’s no purpose to
deaths of these kids,” Goldberg added.
Humans are “almost conditioned to think in conspiracy theories,” writes Seitz-Wald. And "once
the seed of belief is planted," he adds, "it’s very hard to change people’s minds, thanks to a few
powerful and related psychological forces: Cognitive dissonance, motivated reasoning, and
confirmation bias.
Put simply, these forces — present in everyone but critical to conspiracists’
worldview — make believers disregard any evidence that contradicts their
preexisting belief, and seek out only evidence that confirms it.
Anything else
is explained away — or the source is discredited as bought off or part of
the conspiracy."

The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

you call it paranoia...but you are not different than any other animal that has instincts....the difference between humans and
other mammals is our ability to use our brains for reason and logic....

stats are manipulable based on the reasonable outcome desired and it's all done by logic....

so thank you for your 'diagnosis' because I will continue to own my grey matter and question and weigh out everything whether
it be family/religion/job/school and CERTAINLY ESPECIALLY POLITICS and DOCTORS....

your posterity thanks you for the label


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

New SPLC report: ‘conspiracy-minded antigovernment groups’ reached all-time high in 2012

Freda Art
Madison Ruppert
Activist Post

A new report by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) states that the number of “conspiracy-minded antigovernment ‘Patriot’ groups reached an all-time high of 1,360 in 2012” while also calling on the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security to devote more resources to fighting these groups.

This report is in line with a West Point study conflating the “violent far-right” with recognizing the tyrannical, corrupt nature of government, a Homeland Security Policy Institute report emphasizing the supposed threat of domestic terrorism while ignoring the facts contrary to their claims, the White House’s focus on domestic extremism and the FBI’s demonization of “anti-government extremists.”

The SPLC makes a habit of targeting anyone who opposes the government, especially the so-called sovereign citizen movement, while joining the many others who endlessly promote an absurd fear of the non-existent threat of terrorism.

The newest SPLC report describes the rise of what they dub the “Patriot movement, which generally believes that the federal government is conspiring to take Americans’ guns and destroy their liberties as it paves the way for a global ‘one-world government.’”

The report goes on to imply that the “Patriot movement” is connected with domestic terrorism, while never actually showing how that is the case. See the “Latest report exemplifies the SPLC’s odd method” section for a brief examination.

Isn't it funny, SPLC is paranoid and believe that there are people conspiring, and the people that that they say are conspiring believe the government is conspiring against them.  Talk about the pot meeting the kettle.

"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."
