Everyone is prone to anger, and in some cases, demanded. Now, however, it will be declared hate, racist, white supremacy, and is illegal. Soon, when you are ordered to have only one meal per day, you must submit and be happy.

That would explain why so many folks are upset over climate change.

The reverse is true: Those who don't care enough about themselves to think and reason are just gullible.

Thinking hurts and requires ownership. They want mommy government, strangers on the internet, television, their doctor, or their drug supplier to tell them what to do.

Maybe they are angry because they know their wealth is being stolen and their country destroyed.

You mean like the conspiracy theory about the Deep State in DC not wanting to let go of their power grab utilizing the Biden administration to find a way to steal or cancel the 2024 elections.

Flip side is that the vast globalist conspiracies are making people mad. Keep it up. You fools are going to awaken a sleeping giant, and fill him with terrible resolve.

When has that happened before?

Absolute liberal bulls**t.

In order to put forward this conclusion, one must make a snapshot decision at a fixed point of time that *THIS* [assertion/version of the facts/view of the situation] is a conspiracy theory.

The number of conspiracy theories that have been proven true over the past years has skyrocketed. But that’s not my point.

Anyone who would advance the position in the title imagines themselves to be in possession of the absolute truth, and there is no particular way to do that other than with direct physical observations of natural events/effects. The Trump Russia deal was 150 MM people imagining themselves to be in possession of the truth, and after exhaustive investigation, it was found that the conspiracy was not between Russia and Trump, but was between the intel community and reality.

This is the beginning of the policy to lock people up who disagree with the official stance on the grounds they are dangerous.

Not me. I’m definitely hot-tempered, but I’m not into most of these conspiracy theories.

“Obvious liberal/globalist bs, but there may be an element of truth when you consider the corollary: Meek, accepting and complacent people are more prone to believe official stories Lolz”

More like.... gullible, stupid and naive people (ie Democrat supporters and voters) are most likely to not believe in conspiracy theories, but to accept leftist media’s and Big G’s version.

It’s a simple matter of causation. The more conspiracy theories that become fact, as you witness the left being guilty and getting away with it, the more angry you become.

Biden, Gates, Hillary, Schwab, Garland, various heads of FBI, CIA, and media, have been PROVEN to act as co-conspirators in many evil, subversive planned acts.

This has been going on since Sen McCarthy correctly pointed out the widespread infiltration of subversive communists in government and Hollywood.

So give it a rest, liberals/communists!

We are hip to your blatant conspiracies and collective psyops operations! Of course people who see you get away with these things have anger. It is normal and healthy to be pissed about liberals breaking the law with impunity while conservatives are whipped and beaten for the slightest infractions... or no infractions at all.

Keep it up. I am going to enjoy seeing the tables turned on you libs. It won't be long from now.

People Prone to Anger Are ‘More Likely’ to Believe Conspiracy Theories, New Research Suggests

Here is one of those "wet streets cause rain" examples from Michael Crichton. If you believed, for example, that multiple governments forced a dangerous experimental drug on their citizens resulting in quite a lot of death and disability, why WOULDN'T you be angry? For that matter, if you truly believed 9/11 was an inside job, or that the government lied about landing on the moon, why WOULDN'T you be angry? Who doesn't get angry when lied to, especially when that lie costs lives?

On the other hand, people who don't get angry about anything are probably people who get steamrolled over in life.

angry: leftists, progressives, communists, socialists, “no more war” (they cried, as they now demand more war [and nuclear power!?]), Hollywood actors, Hollywood “actors” (formerly known as actresses but are now “actors” until the Academy Award night when such “actors” are happy to again be actresses in the event that they receive Best Actress awards . . . just waiting for the men to discover that no male wins Best Actor - those awards also going to the women and female pronouns - so the men become transvestites in order to win the Academy Award)
