Jesus. I mean, the general lunacy in these posts is already an overwhelming amount of proof, but the way some of these people communicate really seems like clear evidence of some kind of…mental…break? I mean, I know that’s not something I can diagnose reading a post or two, but Jesus. Who organizes their ideas and tries to communicate this way? It’s so…disjointed, and, like…well, crazy. It’s batshit crazy. Not just the ideas, but the crazy stream of consciousness, cluttered, poorly strung together aspect of their attempts to communicate with others.
It sort of works to put their audience on their back heel.
Intelligent people will spent the first half of their rant just grasping for their point. They think that makes them seem intelligent, because their opposition is frequently bewildered at where this gibberish is going. And then, depending on how confrontational their opposition is, they either just try to disengage because they realize it’s not worth the effort, or call them out, in which case they play victim, or change the subject to another incoherent rant.
I know a few people like that. Libertarian and/or conspiracy theorists. The common theme is a superiority complex because they “know” something you don’t.
And they rapid fire as many things as they can at once to overwhelm so that the opposition can’t pick one to debate Sothey can say “you support X and can’t disprove it because you haven’t specifcally said you don’t”.

You ever listen to Trump talk? Every sentence sounds like he had a mini-stroke during it. These are his people.

Trump makes sense! You just listen with an ear, and only one ear, towards what you want him to be saying. Seriously. Try it. I’m not being funny.
Now have a look at the transcript of whatever talk you heard. Now parse meaning out of those words. Put in on paper. Trump said…
It’s wild reading his words in text vs. the spoken word.
