Conspiracy theorists have a great deal in common with the Establishment
on both sides of the aisle. They don't like their fellow Americans and
show utter disdain for their normalcy and insistence on loving their
country because only they can write the script on what patriotism ought
to be; they believe themselves to be morally superior and to possess
occult wisdom of the daily issues THEY believe are important; they
consider their intellectual level to be far superior to their
peers when the majority I've encountered have barely more than a high
school diploma (B.A. or B.S. to Establishment types); they preach their
message with self-righteousness and condescending indignation that
demonstrates further the scorn they have toward the uninitiated or non
believers in their Scripture of Skepticism and so it goes. Nothing.
Nothing can shake their belief in the bogeyman, existential or
otherwise. This kind of thought process I am convinced is the natural
outcome of many many years wearing the uniform of the social justice
warrior. There is no redemption when one believes the sun rising each
day is the moon moving in reverse. Luckily, most of them don't vote.
They can't find the ever elusive perfect candidate.
Far leftists and CTs * (often but not always one and the same) also fear
Trump bc nothing but nothing can shake the impenetrable blockade around
their politically corrected brainwashed brains that can only
regurgitate the themes of social justice ills they alone are endowed
with the wisdom to fix: preoccupation with all things pro-Palestinian
and anti-Israel that trumps (no pun intended) their absent sense of
patriotism and allegiance (considered to be pathological as evidenced
by indignant proclamations regarding their own country while somehow
believing they're appointed to school the rest of us by way of scolding
us into our shamefulness); oftentimes lashing out at their favorite
whipping post aka the United States military; the evils of modern
medicine even though they have no education in it except perhaps
self-help books and Google which is college to them and so it goes.
Jesus Christ himself wouldn't get their votes if He was running but
that's mostly because they're either proclaimed atheists or they allow
themselves to tentatively embrace a religion likely because it serves a
familial, social and cultural need. Hypocrisy is not a word in their
vocabulary.
*CT henceforth to mean "conspiracy theorists" which some may
have noticed is my pet theme of late. Sorry but someone has to say it.
Sadly.
That Was CNN
