Like the type to unironically think Freemasons are the top dogs that control every faucet of society and every other sinister organization bows down to them. The ones who think they’re very smart and woke by saying some shit like “the media is trying to divide us…” They’ll see some socialist quote warning about bourgeois domination of the world and agree with it, but then have zero interest in actually internalizing the material reality. It’s like their entire brain is just based on random quotes and simpsons clips with red circles.
It is so intellectually lazy that I get whiplash every time I see them in the wild because I forget people like this exist. At least with right wing nut job conspiracies will have convictions whether they’re racist or antisemitic or just projection about pedophilia. Centrist conspiracy theorists’ just post some vague “I told you so” in the comments of YouTube and Facebook.
That used to be me. It came from the meilieu of George Carlin, Penn & Teller: Bullshit, and South Park that permeated the era. It’s part of that wing of the ‘manosphere’ that believes true masculinity includes being a pseudointellectual dipshit. These people make up most of the viewerbase for youtubers with debatesonas.
They may pull the “I hate everyone equally!” card or the “both sides hate me!” card but the truth is they’re closer to racism/antisemitism. Fascists will encourage this kind of behaviour and outlook because this position makes it easier and more comforting to blast off into moon logic and fascism than to confront the long and sordid history of white supremacy.
