In a report published in the Journal of Research in Personality, researchers from Australia and Poland suggested that individuals who are more susceptible to anger are more susceptible to conspiracy beliefs, no matter how specific or general they might be.
The studies come after researchers noticed a rise in conspiracy theories and beliefs after the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, a subject that was directly addressed in two of the four studies conducted with Polish and American participants.

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

In today’s world, the difference between a conspiracy theory and it being proven to be the truth is about a month.

liberals are perpetually angry- they aint happy unless they are making other people as miserable as they are- They not only believe in conspiracies, they make up conspiracies out of thin air and believe them

They’re not conspiracy theories anymore.
They’re spoilers.

Maybe because the conspiracies are real and these people happen to be affected by them in some way.
Its not a conspiracy theory if it actually happens.
The people who want to get away with something need to demonize people who expose and put forth ways people can get away with something.

People Prone to Anger
That means 100% of people.
People are humans, right?
All people are prone to anger, although at different levels and for many different reasons, but anyone can be angered.
It's like saying that people are prone to being attracted to other people. It's natural.

If a conspiracy is a conspiracy is it a conspiracy theory? Or a conspiracy?
And if it’s a plain old conspiracy - is that a problem? Or not a problem since conspiracy theorists are angry people, thereby rendering all conspiracies, theoretical and factual, benign?

I tried to search for Pelosi’s words about how political hitjobs are done, but they aren’t in the search engine. Anyone surprised? LOL. Something about- isolate, marginalize, freeze frame....
