The blind faith in some half-assed conspiracy theories…
““The blind faith in some half-assed conspiracy theories lines up with the logic of having to believe in something with no questions asked. It gives us peace and comfort.

It was a road of willingly-learned helplessness, for no action could make a difference, thereby no action was needed.””
