Red Ice video discusses the recent uptick in MSM pushing the "domestic terrorism" narrative--trying to get laws passed that designate groups like Q's Great Awakening as terrorists. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLrEFCPixg4&t=1561s
.
First 7 minutes of the video with links:
* According to the MSM: If you believe in conspiracy theories, you might do a mass shooting--or cause others to
* Yahoo reported on bulletin by FBI about domestic terrorism, but its author Jana Winter did not reveal how she obtained this article [may be bogus]: https://www.yahoo.com/news/fbi-documents-conspiracy-theories-terrorism-160000507.html
* National FBI press office won't deny or admit validity of this document [Praying Medic thread: https://threader.app/thread/1157151320786128896]
* This "FBI document" mentions synagogue shooting, Qanon, Pizzagate (statement on Pizzagate is completely erroneous--calling into question the idea that it is a real FBI doc)
* Does NOT mention that Pizzagate comes from Podesta emails talking about spirit cooking, etc.
* Article by Time: "Conspiracy theories might sound crazy, but here’s why we can no longer ignore them" https://time.com/5541411/conspiracy-theories-domestic-terrorism/ by Melissa Chan. Cites expert [psychologist] Joseph A. Vitriol. Here is his research report: "The illusion of explanatory depth and endorsement of conspiracy beliefs," Joseph A. Vitriol Jessecae K. Marsh, 12 May 2018; https://doi.org/10.1002/ejsp.2504, https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1002/ejsp.2504. You can read the abstract & page 1 for free.
* Red Ice says the researchers used the same short-cut thinking that they accuse conspiracy theorists of [bc they're trying to push their own narrative]. Some claims of this "study": Half of the US population believe in conspiracy theories; exposure to conspiracy theories has increased because of social media; Donald Trump is one of the main sources of misinformation. Red Ice summarizes its fake research findings: Freedom of speech on the Internet is bad; free flow of info is bad; access of unwashed masses to technology wo/limitation is bad; Trump is bad ["Orange Man bad"]
.
This "study" is an example of the kind of fake research used to discredit conservatives. Here's another I ran across by Heather Timmons, Oct 2018: https://qz.com/1436267/trump-stochastic-terror-and-the-hate-that-ends-in-violence/
This research is fake for the same reason that the Club of Rome or climate change research is fake: GIGO with too many variables, the wrong variables, the wrong questions, etc. Academic psychology--my field--is completely dominated by the left; cannot be trusted to yield legit data or analyses to the extent that the results have political ramifications.

This isn't going to help them in a time when most Americans believe that Jeffrey Epstein was killed by someone other than himself...just sayin'..
