NEW #OA article out now! - "The Status Foundations of Conspiracy Beliefs" by @saverio_pdf journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11… #openscience
26% of US graduate degree holders agree that "SchooI shoot!ngs, like those at Sandy Hооk, CT and ParkIand, FL, are f aIse fIag attacks perpetrated by the government" twice the rate of others (13%) aren't "conspiracy theories" supposed to be for the uneducated?? ⬇️⬇️⬇️
inb4 "those aren't conspiracy theories some of those are true!1!1!!!" i mean conspiracy literally - powerful people plotting in private. i am aware that the "conspiracy theory" label is often used to mean "idea that i dislike" or "idea that is false." not what i'm doing here
tldr - "conspiracy theories" aren't just for the uneducated journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/23…

@saverio_pdf @CaulfieldTim @UCIrvine @STWorg @jonathanstea @doritmi @ScienceUpFirst @StanKutcher @DG_Rand @GordPennycook @AwanRad @SabiVM Thanks for the discussions. An extreme scenario: both “fact/reality” & “conspiracy” are “language games”, two sides of the same coin. In this context, “taboo belief” is an individualized way to create “fact/reality”. The population with middle education has the lowest creativity.
@saverio_pdf @davidnhamilton As someone else suggested in comments, this tendency to inflate education level may be more prevalent among people attracted to conspiracy theories other things being equal.
when a coffeehead says something so morningsodaphobic that you gotta em with that 7 am dr pepper stare
You can literally pick any of the CIA's greatest hits and explain it word for word without exaggeration and sound like the most unhinged conspiracy theorist alive.
Americans' ahistorical understanding of the US' racist history runs so deep that being historically accurate will have people believing you're a conspiracy theorist.

Much respect for and solidarity with this Cal Poly Humboldt faculty member who was arrested in last night's crackdown in Arcata. This is how you stand with students!
@saverio_pdf I, for one, can attest that college campuses are fertile places for conspiracy theories & other cosmic debris. Or were when I went, anyway. youtube.com/watch?v=M754Yl…
@saverio_pdf @CaulfieldTim @UCIrvine @STWorg @jonathanstea @doritmi @ScienceUpFirst @StanKutcher @DG_Rand @GordPennycook @AwanRad @SabiVM Thanks. A variation of #1 has actually been proven for the US. #1 here is similar to what is called a "over-specific denial". It is not the "top 1% of the top 1%", it is the top 10 %.
@saverio_pdf Like political affiliation & religious beliefs (re twin studies), the tendency for adults to hold conspiracy theories may have less to do with $ & education level & more to do with childhood experiences/parental influence (heredity & home environment). kent.ac.uk/news/society/1…

@saverio_pdf @CaulfieldTim @UCIrvine @STWorg @jonathanstea @doritmi @ScienceUpFirst @StanKutcher @DG_Rand @GordPennycook @AwanRad @SabiVM 2/2. People with the low education can see and feel these agendas because: 1) they are not fully-brainwashed; 2) they are direct victims. Some with the highest education can see because: 1) their deep understanding of human societies; 2) their involvement.
@saverio_pdf @CaulfieldTim @UCIrvine @STWorg @jonathanstea @doritmi @ScienceUpFirst @StanKutcher @DG_Rand @GordPennycook @AwanRad @SabiVM 1/2. I read your interesting paper. However, I disagree with your explanation. In fact, many conspiracies in your list are the secret agendas used by the satanic mafia to control the societies. However, by education systems, these devils successfully brainwashed most people.
