Clark’s essay is interesting because it offers explanation for not just things like Q or Satanic Panic but also, more gently, the reactions to mostly-imaginary cultural bogeymen. Christmas provides a lot of examples, from “they don’t let you say Merry Christmas!” to “the libs want to ban Rudolph!” The complaintant is asserting their own virtue more than showing any legitimate concern.

chitoryu12 posted:I visited Comet Ping Pong twice this year to see what all the hubbub was about. You know why it had weird murals? It’s a hipster pizza place in an LGBT neighborhood. The bartender was a guy in short shorts with a backwards baseball cap. Chevy Chase is a LGBT neighborhood now? Always thought that was too far out of the city center and too vaguely suburban to get a rep like that.

Toplowtech posted:Can someone tell the hierarchy of insane believe in crazy theory land? It sounds interesting. At the bottom are conspiracy theories that are more or less standalone. Say, JFK conspiracy theorists. Or people who think Elvis isn't/wasn't dead. Maybe even 9/11 truthers. Stuff that someone might wrongly believe, but they don't also have to believe NASA faked the moon landing or that ancient America was populated by Europeans or that rich people drink the blood/hormones of children.

Isn't there a theory that a lot of UFO theorists are government plants because that way people don't dig too deep into reports of experimental aircraft? I've always liked that one.

Z. Autobahn posted:Isn't there a theory that a lot of UFO theorists are government plants because that way people don't dig too deep into reports of experimental aircraft? I've always liked that one. Coral Lorenzen, who ran the Aerial Phenomenon Research Organization (APRO) in the 50s and 60s outright filtered out UFO reports that she could recognize as being missile/rocket tests and military craft. Also any sensible researcher telling people that “Please don’t camp out by Area 51, believe me the accounts of reverse engineered flying saucers are dubious” will get labeled a government plant so that theory kind of falls apart. However, misinformation such as “whistleblowers”, “Top Secret Documents” and the like fed to head honchos like John Lear, Steven Greer, and Tom Delonge. Very real but also very questionable on what that accomplishes. On he other hand there are more clear examples like the recent UFO sighting in Ireland that has been accused of likely being a UK military drone test.

Toplowtech posted:Can someone tell the hierarchy of insane believe in crazy theory land? It sounds interesting. I don't think there's any empirical support for the idea that there's a distinct clustering or hierarchy of some kind here though. Systemic theories like the Big Pharma one are pretty popular, probably more so than 9/11 (at least in western countries). But the superconspiracies seem very likely to be at the top of the implausibility scale. QAnon is a superconspiracy for sure.

To a certain degree mass undifferentiated Conspiracy makes for a modern secular millenarianist religion, with the Deepstate/NWO/government taking the role of the devil (MKULTRA and Mockingbird and all that other crap are pretty much a secular variation of demonic possession and the devil having his fingers in everything) and complete with underground bases and stuff with Jade Helm/Agenda 21/etc acting as the coming apocalypse.

There are non-religious Quilts. In fact one of the first things that occurred after reddit purged them and the great pilgrimage to Voat happened there was a big schism between the Jesus Qultists and non religious 4chan Qultists with each side declaring themselves the true disciples and followers of Q and the other side vile shill heretics that must be destroyed. Things have simmered down now but both sects still hate the other under the surface though there is slight adoptions of, I suppose the best word for them, Qanon rituals such as the boomer Jesus sect adoption of calling fellow qultists racial slurs as a term of endearment and the 4Chan sect adopting that while they don’t believe in god the cabal does really believe in Satan and is Satanic at the very least

Yeah, there are definitely a poo poo load of enlightened atheist fedora types among the Q ranks. In fact I'd say the younger Qultist tend to be these types, whereas the boomer Quidiots are the more Jesus-y faction.

Pope Guilty posted:The Satanic Panic started because of a shrink who wanted to be famous. That loving book I bought a copy years ago because it sounded hysterical and who doesn't want to read the book that kicked off the Satanic Panic. It's gotta be good right?! It's so god drat boring. The rituals are hysterically dumb and don't even manage to hit "70's Satan Movie" levels of believable, nearly every one of these rituals is ruined by Michelle who runs around causing chaos which none of these all powerful Satanists can do a loving thing about. Canadian Satan shows up and is super lame and rhymes a bunch and it's bad. Jesus also makes a guest appearance towards the end of the book because lol why the gently caress not. It's a miserable book and I hate it. Someday I'll do a let's read but fuuuuuuuuuuuck.

Edith Upwards posted:Either HN is (jokingly?) demanding the return of Caturday and other beloved 4chan traditions, or the Qultists and nazis have broken the only law ever held sacred by 4chan. Turned out to be a joke by both HN and the poster I was quoting, but as someone who's had property with cats/goats/owls on it, uh, if you get a religious son of a bitch who starts talking about demons than they're eventually going to destroy landscaping features and kill your animal buddies. Like, 100% sure that Abrahamic religion's grudge against graven images was tied to the same urge that causes fundies to start torturing cats and murdering statues. I also knew a christian lady who either murdered or disowned her kid and she'd tell us all about how the satanists killed him.

People were going nuts! I remember some dude camped outside a Walmart that was closing in Texas or somewhere handing breathless updates of the upcoming UN takeover. The UN was mainly operating out of removal trucks and Corollas.

joylessdivision posted:That loving book If you're looking for a more-entertaining Satanic Panic book, He Came To Set the Captives Free by Rebecca Brown is a wild time. She gets right to the demon summoning, kung-fu witches, baby sacrifices, and getting hosed by Satan himself, all within the first 50 pages! She's not wasting your time here! Although it does eventually get bogged down with a weird, overly-long description of how she thinks souls work later on, but you can just skip that part.
