My own take, as a former Social Psychologist and Councilor, is that many of them are ‘true believers’, that they think/feel/believe that what THEY think/feel/believe is self evidently ‘True’, and therefore can be treated as proven fact.
Unfortunately, the universe, reality, and others do not always agree with them. Ergo, the Universe, reality and others MUST be wrong.
However, if what they believe is self-evidently ‘True’, then URO, especially those pesky Others, must have some ulterior motives for disagreeing with them. This is where the paranoria starts. And once it starts, it feeds on itself.
