I am highly suspicious of people who are deeply into the Q thing. I know a few people that I respect who are suspiciously well read on the topic. But most are the retired, angry boomers with too much time on their hands.

I don't necessarily dismiss their intelligence, but I do assume that people who openly support Democrats the last few years are highly intolerant of others, lack intellectual honesty, likely supports cancel culture, and possibly backs imprisonment of people who don't agree with their world view. Basically I immediately suspect that they are totalitarian brown coats until I can prove otherwise.

I know profiling is wrong, but it's for my own protection.

A friend of mine is really into Ford trucks. That doesn't make him stupid at all...but in his particular case, the last 3 of them were total garbage. But he keeps buying new ones over and over again. And then complaining about all the repairs needed to keep his diesel pickup running.

Starting to think he sees those mechanic's bills as bragging or something.

What if, hypothetically, the person doesn't know what MCU stands for?

I also love Ford trucks, but they all gave me trouble.

Any type of government collectivism. How some people think giving your personal power over to a group is a good thing blows the mind.

It basically means there is no argument.
It comes from simps who need those labels to sleep at night (by allowing themselves to ignore opposing views which are most likely the most relevant and basic facts).


This 100%.

People, besides teenagers, who look up to celebrities or politicians as role models.

Believes people should be forced to vaccinate if they want to be able to feed their families because it saves lives. But then completely supports a woman’s right to get an abortion.

Its just a right wing form of collectivism. A collection of myths to support a collective ideology.

Buying into conspiracies and starting multiple threads per month.

Intelligent people don't do these things.
