Believing in Conspiracy Theories is an Aberrant response to Covid Fatigue

 Covid Fatigue is a form of PTSD caused by the disruptions of people's lives caused by what they have to do to survive the Coronavirus worldwide.

So, on one level it is not surprising at all that people are starting to behave (some people) like aberrant responses to World War II and the Great Depression Worldwide.

What happened on January 6th is a mishandled fight or flight response to feeling imprisoned in one's own life and being incapable of dealing with whats happening in a healthy way.

Anyone who has studied Social Psychology like I have understands this.

So, what is actually happening here is that Putin is hiring expert PHDs in social psychology to write things online to stir up people who are having PTSD problems anyway and who have never studied basic Social Psychology techniques for manipulating large segments of the public.

The primary tenant of Social Psychology manipulation manipulation of the masses is this one:

"IF YOU REPEAT A LIE ENOUGH TIMES IT TENDS TO BECOME A TRUTH TO A SEGMENT OF THE POPULATION."

This is how all Dictators (LIKE TRUMP) cause problems in their countries around the world.

IF you have studied in college or on your own enough social psychology you are not vulnerable in this way. But, if you don't understand fully what is happening to you from Covid Fatigue (which is basically the same as Battle Fatigue of World War II and before which they now call PTSD then you are vulnerable to your fight or flight responses (like a wild animal) to lies being repeated over and over again sometimes.

This is really what happened on January 6th. It was a completely PTSD response to Covid Fatigue in some people.

In other words it makes some people willing to die for lies which they are susceptible to because of their PTSD from traumatic experiences in their lives including Covid Fatigue.

So, literally Covid Fatigue is making some people temporarily or permanently crazy and dysfunctional.
