Abstract in brief
- Conspiracy theories have been a consistent part of human history, particularly during periods of societal crises that challenge established norms and power structures.
- The psychological response to crises—characterized by fear, uncertainty, and a sense of loss of control—can lead individuals to adopt conspiracy beliefs as a way to make sense of chaotic situations.
- Once established, these conspiracy theories can evolve into historical narratives, influencing how people remember and interpret major events over time.

Oh! I just emailed this to myself yesterday to discuss a claim that we're entering some kind of *new* fact-free era. I think it might be helpful for you! (seemingly unrelated but not really: I cannot thank you enough for the High Conflict book recommendation) pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29081831/

https://t.co/j5iOrPCC2h 陰謀論と歴史についての論文。 陰謀論はいつでもどこでも存在する。例としては古代ローマ皇帝ネロについての噂など。 災害や戦争など、社会的危機が陰謀論を増加させる。 社会的危機が人々の不安や恐怖をかきたてる。 陰謀論は人々の不安や恐怖を鎮めてくれない。

"Such sense-making is particularly likely to stimulate conspiracy beliefs in a social context that involves hostile or ideologically dissimilar outgroups … conspiracy beliefs enable perceivers to estimate what the outgroup is capable of." https://t.co/Xub88n50r9

@Paul10376555 @StuartR89012353 @Saffiya_Khan1 @NeikkaT @joedunford200 Funnily enough, Hollywood has been part of the problem. Some societies really think in metaphors so films like the Matrix allow the more gullible to take the whole false reality idea and blend it in with the real world. You can really see it in the Q
@Th3MadK1NG @tucsoniris What is wrong or even new about conspiracy theories? https://t.co/gB94wkI2RK
@SimonUbsdell @DavidHenigUK More seriously, though, this article may be of interest (as you can tell, I do my own internet research)
Research reveals conspiracy theories increase feelings of powerlessness and leads to maladaptive behavior, such as withdrawal from politics, decreased willingness to reduce one’s carbon footprint, and decreased willingness to have a child vaccinated. https://t.co/D6MJfI6TIO
