One reason #conspiracies thrive is most humans need simple narratives to make sense of the world. When faced w/complex uncertainties, they revert from positivism, empiricism and logic to metaphysics, myth and superstition to fill the dark abyss where meaning should be. @NovelSci twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
This is because the ways they used to determine what is true no longer seem to work. It’s inexplicable why they lost their job or why they can’t seem to move up the social hierarchy or why they can’t find a mate. The reasons are not clear, so a narrative fills the void.
They may create such a narrative, but many times such meaning-making narratives are provided for them by charismatic leaders seeking power and are socially reinforced by affinity groups. Finally they belong and have a shared narrative to make sense of the world.

1/n LET’S PLAY GLOBAL THERMONUCLEAR WAR!!!!
Well as my last attempt⤵️to #StopTheWar in #Ukraine failed to get any traction I thought my 2nd attempt should start with a bang or in the words of #DrStrangelove"How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb"
2/n It seems I am not scary enough to scare sense into some participants of the current war, I thought trying to use a selection of #GNUTerryPratchett words from #Discworld #Jingo & #Hogfather along with some horrors of war concepts might persuade #WarCriminals in the conflict
3/n that a better path might be available to them and others if the war ended quickly but as another Author @Kurt_Vonnegut said of horrors in another War #SoItGoes🤷‍♂️
I started with the words
“LET’S PLAY GLOBAL THERMONUCLEAR WAR‼️‼️”
From the #WarGames film

PROOF OF THE ILLUMINATI PUBLICLY CELEBRATING THEIR IDOLS, HOLIDAYS, AND SYMBOLS IN PLAIN SITE

What's the deeper meaning behind it all?

Follow the white rabbit through this maze connecting art, Jeffrey Epstein, the illuminati, possible dimensional portals and... escape rooms?
This rabbit hole actually leads to more topics than just this thread, a part 2 will be needed

After reading this thread keep your eyes peeled for these symbols and feel free to send me any connections you make on your own
It started when I saw a commercial for the movie Escape Room 2: Tournament of Champions

I noticed the white and black checkerboard floor and the black cube

The characters are in a bank called "Illuminus Bank"

The black cube image is also placed over lower Manhattan ImageImageImageImage

A word about the movie #Contagion: I thought it was fantastic when it came out. It’s even better (and scarier) now that I've rewatched it during a #pandemic like the one it portrays. Fortunately ours isn't as deadly; the fake disease had a 25% mortality rate. /1
The makers of #Contagion consulted with scientists, the #WHO, and Dr. #SanjayGupta to ensure it was an accurate representation of a #pandemic and best practices. In other words, this #Hollywood movie crew was better informed than our current #WhiteHouse. /2
#Contagion accurately portrayed how a #pandemic is downplayed at 1st, symptomatic patients roam in public as experts try to sound the alarms, and countries argue over where it began. Empty storefronts, food shortages, #masks. But even #Hollywood couldn't imagine mask backlash. /3
