MAGA Insanity

This clip shows the depth to which a human mind can be genuinely deluded to the point of tears:

That's how powerful ideology is. That's how dangerous the wrong epistemology is.


You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.

Some more examples of the same phenomena.

I would have linked other videos but they got deleted  or dereferenced to the point I can't find them anymore, which is the next dive into lower stage of consciousness when for the same category of material you either promote or censor it whether it serves your bias or goes against it.

This sort of Cult of Personality seems to be unprecedented in American Culture, as far as its scope and reach, does it not?

The closest analogue I can think of is someone like Jim Jones and the People's Temple Cult, but Jim Jones wasn't President and didn't have tens of millions of followers that were actively destabilizing democratic intuitions. Also unlike Trump, Jones actually believed what he was preaching, and wasn't merely out to grift his followers.

@DocWatts McCarthyism and the Red Scare.

Trumpism is bascially the Red Scare 2.0

That's actually a really good point now that you mention it... Though I think technically it would be the 3.0 version, since the beta version of the red scare launched along with the Soviet Union in the 1910s and 20s.:P

 There are so many people out there that are too far gone. Imagine laying in a hospital bed gasping for air and still truly believing COVID is a liberal hoax.

In an effort to explore this insanity, I've been interacting with some MAGAs on twitter. I'm shocked by how far I can create insane theories without losing MAGAs. A few things I've learned is to remove all logic, reason and sense of authority. About 10% of truth is needed as a foundation to build ludicrous theories. And it's best to use seeds they've already been conditioned with. For example, creating insane stories using a combination of pre-seeded components such as: Hilary's emails, Hunter's laptop, Venezuela communism, Hugo Chaves' algorithm, George Soros, Deep State, Bill Gates, unreleased Kraken evidence, censorship, cancel etc. Slip in trusted sources as Sydney Powell / Qanon and call anyone who disagrees "Fake News" communists. Lastly, throw in a bit about God and how we are the true patriots. 

For example, I created a story that Sydney's Kraken has eight limbs of unreleased evidence of mass fraud that stole the election. Hugo Chavez's is just one of eight limbs. Sydney has much more evidence she will be releasing in the next two weeks. Trump distanced himself from Sydney so she could dive deeper into investigating the Deep State plan. She has access to Hunter's laptop and evidence that he met with communists in Chavez's regime. Development of the algorithm was funded by George Soros and technological support was given by Bill Gates' Microsoft team. We are God's soldiers against the ghost of Chavez stealing the election with a sneaky algorithm. We've got Sydney Kracken headin' the charge!!! Trump's team is intentionally losing court cases so they can quickly appeal to scotus and reveal all this information. Why would we release this information to lower courts filled with Obama libtards? The Fake News will just create a smokescreen to censor the evidence and cancel us. In two weeks, we will be releasing the #KrakenOnSteroids to scotus. Timing is everything and we still have time. Keep the faith MAGA. America will soon wake up. 

The above story is complete BS I made up with pre-seeded MAGA keywords. I was shocked by how much MAGA support I get. I deleted most of the nonsense because it was getting so many MAGA likes and retweets. I didn't want the B.S. amplified. Below are some typical MAGA responses to the B.S. story I made up.

"I have faith in Sidney, Trump, Rudy, Jenna... it’s the criminal piece that we won’t see DOJ on- just like Durham & 30 special counsels before...all investigations of smoke & mirrors. We have to start from ground up and reduce government". God bless Patriots".

"Fake News is literally a communist “war tactic” ... The psychological, mental warfare tactics are huge piece of war, training & discipline- you can breeze by the memes - but there sickening"

"Take heart. Folks like you & I know what’s going on.  We will not allow getting closer than we are now to Socialism-We are at cusp—It May get horrific, painful- beyond our comprehension but we will never be socialist Country too many Patriots"

As long as I use MAGA keywords, I'm perceived as on their side and frame the other side as extremist socialists / communists, none of their responses question any claims I make. If I'm perceived as a MAGA patriot against the evil communists, nearly any ludicrous claims I make are accepted - as long as it doesn't come across as obviously condescending or mocking to them. 

One thing I've noticed, is it is MUCH harder to persuade and pull someone out of their conspiracy theory rabbit hole, than it is to pull someone deeper into a rabbit hole of nonsense. For example, I've tried to speak to MAGAs about how it's unreasonable to believe a Chavez algorithm stole the election and it was discovered because so many people voted for Trump it broke the algorithm. I would be immediately dismissed as a communist that is brainwashed with Fake News. Yet if I make up a story about how Hugo Chavez secretly met with Soros and Bill Gates in 2009 to create an algorithm to defeat Trump in 2020 - yet Fake News wants to censor this because they are communists that hate freedom - MAGA is open and believe it.

A Game Designer’s Analysis Of QAnon

https://medium.com/curiouserinstitute/a-game-designers-analysis-of-qanon-580972548be5

 

Thank you! Yes that gets into the mental game playing.

I'm amazed how absurd I can go and still string along MAGAs believing it. From the perspective of trying to disseminate misinformation and bogus theories - "freedom of speech" and "censorship" become limiting factors. Creators of misinformation and bogus theories need a social media environment that lacks regulation and moderation. An "anything goes, freedom of speech" environment. Sorta like a giant social forum without regulation, rules, moderators or consequences. The next priority would be to demonize critical thinking and education.

There is also an art to it. For example, I couldn't say "Brian Kemp refused to certify the GA election results" since it is obviously not true. Yet we could use Brian Kemp certifying the results as a nugget of truth to create a bogus theory. We could say "Brian Kemp certified the GA result because he is cooperating wtih the CIA and communists in Venezuela to profit off of election insurance". One might think "Wait a second, that's also obviously not true - noone would believe that crazy idea". Yet that is Sydney Powell's latest creation and millions of MAGAs believe it. 

In America, decades of conditioning has created a populace of tens of millions of people that not only believe absurd theories, they demand it. It's how they can maintain their identity at the individual and collective levels.
