Some normies, like my mom, have been so indoctrinated to the concept of 'conspiracy theory' that they will dismiss, at any cost, any alternative suggestion. Also, the element of denial of uncomfortable truths plays a huge hand in this. But that's a personality thing. She doesn't give a shit what people think of her. On the other hand, I've had to undergo some deep changes lately to accept that I shouldn't give a shit what people think of me, either. Things have been a bit easier since then. In other words, while the meme is accurate, it's not the only explanation, it's just one of them.
My 84 yo mother is starting to at least admit somethings really off with the covid thing. Lol. For 2byears I've ranted on, she took 2 shots, now she puts her foot down, no more, we used to call it being stuck in your ways when someone wouldn't modernise their thinking. Now if you get stuck in your old ways you are
Simply stuck in a lie.
It's kind of funny, my 72 yo stepdad has been saying since the beginning that they're trying to knock off the old folks, he saw right through it, but my mum...she just got militant and hysterical. lol. glad i'm not in that house...
I don't want to be liked, I want to be in position and society where I like the people around me and we can all work together to better our lives and the lives of our children.
