You wear your mask, even though they have no health benefit and the mask mandates were never based in fact.
You shut down your business and stayed home from work and school, so every person in town can all go to Wal-Mart at the same time, and you thanked them for it.
You get whipped up into a frenzy over every media hoax, then when it's proven to be a fake made-up narrative, you just move on.
You refuse to consider any factual basis in truth or reality, and instead just morph every argument into "racism".
You have been abused, and you love your abuser.
You are in a cult.
If you stop berserking for 5 minutes and question even 1 part of the fake narrative you've devoted yourself to, you'll see a crack in the facade.

People do this all the time with weird minor things. You can't change your stance on something because you've invested so much in to it. It happened with environmentalists and nuclear power. I had a friend who refused to watch Game of Thrones because she thought it was stupid (without having watched it). She couldn't watch it because she already told everyone how much she hated it. Glad I don't talk to her any more.
Yeah, but in the end she was right (as in broken clock right).
Hah! The show ended up being terrible. I never thought about that until now.
They royally fucked up that ending. I can't even go back and watch any of the earlier stuff because I 'now how shittily they rushed a crappy ending.
Could have been legendary, but defeat was snatched from the jaws of victory.
I think they were doomed to fail when GRRM gave up on the series. The second book was up there with the best writing I've ever read. After that, just went downhill. The show runners had no base material left for the show, so it wandered for a while then they were rushed into an ending and seriously shit the bed.
