Interestingly, ideological preference for decentralization and small-scale political life plays right into this. Libertarianism adopted for reasonable peacetime ideals makes you an infowar-time patsy

The deployers of fake news as a weaponized infowar tactic aim for 3 outcomes in enemy populations: 1. Fragmentation of truth ground (divide) 2. Retreat from public spaces (conquer) 3. Mutual cognitive retreat among neighbors, at speed of bullshit, from doubt (incapacitate)

I think our pathologies for how subcultures are driven to conspiracy patsydom are wildly different. I don't think people go crazy in a vaccuum -- they're pushed to it when they perceive enforced ideological singularity. Giving them space to play/breathe will solve problem quickly
