Re: New York Times Disinfo Machine: Conspiracy Theorists have Low Self Worth
snip (bolding is mine)

Consider this: 63 percent of registered American voters believe in at least one political conspiracy theory, according to a recent poll conducted by Fairleigh Dickinson University.

While psychologists can’t know exactly what goes on inside our heads, they have, through surveys and laboratory studies, come up with a set of traits that correlate well with conspiracy belief. In 2010, Swami and a co-author summarized this research in The Psychologist, a scientific journal. They found, perhaps surprisingly, that believers are more likely to be cynical about the world in general and politics in particular. Conspiracy theories also seem to be more compelling to those with low self-worth, especially with regard to their sense of agency in the world at large. Conspiracy theories appear to be a way of reacting to uncertainty and powerlessness.

Re: New York Times Disinfo Machine: Conspiracy Theorists have Low Self Worth
This article hits many hot-topics:

9/11
AIDS
vaccines
Princes Di
Climate Change

I wonder if this is an Orwellian acknowledgement that the conspiracy "theories" for these are actually true?

Re: New York Times Disinfo Machine: Conspiracy Theorists have Low Self Worth
Oh wait, NYT has an answer for that too:

the Internet and other media have helped perpetuate paranoia. Not only does more exposure to these alternative narratives help engender belief in conspiracies, he says, but the Internet’s tendency toward tribalism helps reinforce misguided beliefs.

Absolutely!

Look at what the US Government has done with the very few reporters who actually took it upon themselves to be journalists.

First, they smeared them through various venues (including NYT of course) in an attempt to discredit the reporting.

Next, while performing the First step, they were illegally investigating the journalists

And, whilst doing all that the government was using their brown-shirt arm, The IRS, to force the journalists into submission.

Be careful out there GLP'ers!

I have to admit that in my case it's true. I have indeed low self-worth and self-confidence.

Re: New York Times Disinfo Machine: Conspiracy Theorists have Low Self Worth
I agree with that!

How many times have you heard someone complain about their feelings hurt or the board should change to be a nice more friendly place?

Why would posters become what they complain about and ban people from their threads because of something said they don't like?

If their self worth were high these types of things wouldn't bother them.

There's another board that put a ban on certain verbiage, if people had a high self worth why would words bother them?
