Those are your words.

My thoughts are that you are a little man that needs to blindly someone. This is evident by your rabid defense of the con man Martin Armstrong.

This is how your mind works.

Research suggests that people who feel ostracized or lack a sense of belonging are more likely to believe in conspiracies. People who feel that their status is threatened or who have a lower income are also prone to believing conspiracies.

Humans are wired to find threats in their environment, but also to detect potential alliances.

In some ways, a conspiracy theory may satisfy the human desire to belong. Theories circulate among a group of people who may come to feel like a family, and what they believe is the basis for that bond.

Sharing in the conspiracy also validates their self-image. Built into a conspiracy theory is the notion that one’s group and what they believe is right and everyone else is wrong. The assumption is that the coalition is moral and good, and they are being sabotaged by people outside of it.

Conspiracy theorists believe they belong to a smaller, less powerful group that is at the mercy of a larger group. This belief gives them a sense of disempowerment and increases anxiety, isolation, and vulnerability to outside influences.4

While studies have shown that a sense of ostracism strengthens conspiracy beliefs, a strong sense of self appears to reduce a person’s chances to believe in or endorse them.3
