Superpowers – Conspiracy Theory & Reason: Intuition is a Spiritual Power: I’ve once mentioned this fundamental question of Democracy, whereupon a gigantic and growing corporate system has emerged and is ever changing. Be that as it may, it’s a simulation with flexibility, which means its form can change. The fundamental question is: How do you evacuate the middle and assemble the form that remains while preserving the polarised citizens’ belief in democracy?
Intellects warned of the likelihood of a situation where a Trump/Elon tag team could come to power and establish a regime similar to that of Mussolini. This raises significant concerns about the fundamental challenges that would arise after such authoritarian rule. Specifically, it raises the question of whether people can ever regain equal footing in society.
Redefining the middle where a better symbiosis between corporation and the working class has a better balance, granted it’s not a full evacuation, just remoulding of old systems, and it only shows it’s a far more profound question that I’m inadequate to answer. Democracy is the form that remains, but given how easily a coup or an insurrection can arise, it should be the form that can evolve enough to remove viruses that corrupt laws, institutions and constitutions.
Given a demoralised, unmovable, and deeply racist voting base that makes up 30% of the US’s voting demographic, together with a half century of demoralisation, their ideological fate is sealed with no flexibility or evolution to grow out of. They are dogmatic and absolute, paralleling science’s irrational fixed worldview. Any other republican head who appeases their fundamentalism would be their messiah or liberator; it just happens to be Trump. An illiterate failed corrupt businessman, who adopted conspiracy-theory rhetoric to gain political power, and once in power, ran it like the mafia.
The US, as a country, had never fully developed into a true federation, as it was shaped within the nineteenth-century Enlightenment model. Countries such as Canada and Australia were conceived in a medieval form as early as the mid-nineteenth century and never attempted to become classic monolithic nation-states. Instead, they were true federated countries with diverse populations, multiple religions, and varied languages. The United States missed this evolving form and should strive for a continental dream rather than a national one – a decentralised federal structure and a celebration of multiracial, multicultural, and multilingual cooperation and creativity.
It has become clear that the plutocrats have many representatives who can derail the legislative branch and influence elected officials, making them susceptible to being bought. Additionally, the role of the Electoral College and gerrymandering undermines public confidence. This situation leaves little recourse for citizens, patronage systems are not a common feature in other democratic countries where their democracies function effectively and honestly as possible. In the Commonwealth, the executive branch and cabinet share legislative power, involving both the upper and lower houses of parliament. Parties tend to vote along party lines, which fosters a consensus that allows for progress. If the populace disagrees with their representatives, they have the power to vote them out of office.
The U.S is primarily a country that leverages financialisation and militarisation, indicative of an empire in decline. Corrupt infrastructures, abandonment of sectors and populations, and hollowing out institutions – the foundations rot away, but the facade of democracy remains. These declines are still solvable through democratic social policies, but they can’t evolve away from demonising socialism. If they ever get back to equilibrium, they should enact a bill where every U.S. citizen must vote by law; the non-voters alongside the majority would make it impossible for a fascist nationalist movement ever retake power again.
The fundamental question of evacuation can be applied semantically in various contexts or other conundrums, such as conspiracy theories and conspiracies, where the subject matter encompasses political discussions and engages both the media and philosophers. How do you promote healthy scepticism within conspiracy theory without the right-wing pipeline engulfing it into their firebrand and the left-wing simulating it into their hyperrealism and (false) facts branding?
It’s not found in the leftist (independent) media because they have a strong subjectivity concerning healthy scepticism. They ignore it completely and follow legacy news network talking points. Such as the Covid programme was a valid enterprise to cure a Virus. Or to proclaim that Trump is the first postmodernist president rather than the first post-Truth president – it’s not merely semantics because it generalises postmodernism. Read more on Occultism and the Living World (12).
It has something to do with a disconcerting truth about the “roles” people play in society, like those with wealth who are not inherently smart, but have the power to overrule the managerial class, who themselves are equal in limited intelligence. We have surmised success with intelligence, and we shouldn’t. Inversely, throughout history, there have been many individual geniuses who have died in poverty. This summation implies our imagination is not our own, but an appropriation that corporatizes and steals our imagined outcome. This is always the case, but even so, they cannot grasp the complete permanent uncertainty because it’s infinitely too large; only those that are gifted enough to evoke it, like actual scientists, inventors, artist-prophets, Shamans, psychics, etc., can do so, but are often reeled into submission.
The managerial takeover of our imagination plays a part, but the Dunning-Kruger effect also plays a part. An argument that goes both ways – a psychological cognitive bias where people with limited knowledge are assigned to an intellectual domain (or role), but vastly overestimate their expertise or competence in that role, or a genius who vastly underestimates their intellect. Trump and his administration exemplify the Dunning-Kruger effect while throwing bombs of conspiracy-theory doubt to healthy scepticism. The Dunning-Kruger effect as an anomaly is used by the left-wing (not leftist) as an argument for left-wing morality to imply that limited knowledge will result in groups with their varying beliefs, such as anti-vaxxers, being wrong in their ideation.
The takeaway here is their notion of limited knowledge acting as a type of barrier that’s analogous to an IQ test, where the result is indicative of your role or intellectualism. Talents or personal geniuses do not work in that binary form; it’s a wrong comparative analogy. Also, due to limited knowledge, there is over-compensation for knowledge insofar as to indicate that you must have a doctorate in every subject to make an opinion in the first place. It’s like having bricks of facts building a wall of rationalism, and since we know that conspiracy theories can sometimes be true, your brick of facts is not a fact at all, and your wall comes tumbling down. In science, maths, that is, a supposition gets validated when more observable proofs prove otherwise.
This overcompensation of knowledge is the leftist version of their firebrand, but it’s also an illusion since facts are just building blocks to rationalism. That does not say certain or unmovable facts are not true, whereupon methodology and testing have concluded the process of rigorous thought and reason. Just that rigorous thought and reason upon a false foundation makes it false to begin with – a false fact. Since the Solar-Cultist Bruno changed our cosmology, this hyperrealism exists, and it causes doubt. How do you then update a traditional (pre-Bruno) worldview while integrating the forms that seem probable from our modern/ contemporary one while dispensing scientism (hyperrealism) altogether?
Not all healthy scepticism follows a right-wing firebrand of apocalyptic paranoia enhanced by Social Media that meme-simulates not a delusion, but a post-truth class of low-intelligence (or IQ) groups. As an example, illiterate high schoolers with elementary reading levels, a seemingly new phenomenon is popping up in parallel to a growing post-truth phenomenon, significant to conspiracy theories and para-politics. There was a United States valley Victorian who got a surprise in college because she could only read or write at an elementary level. Conspiracy theory does not invoke delusions; rather, not enough intelligent people can discern the subjects that invoke a type of delusion. Algorithms can lead to incentives for a group to develop conspiratorial delusions that have no basis in our perceived reality, according to a rational majority collective. However, they are already suffering from decades of religious fundamentalism, manipulation and personal persecution complexes to begin with, even before the birth of the internet.
The left needs to stop framing conspiracy theory as something duplicitous or immature, they have a habit of doing so just to confirm their totalising absolute, even if the absolute and its foundation is built on a lie. The hypocrisy surrounding theorising is pushed one way when it’s the same theorising as scientific assumptions of hyperrealism. Often, these are hyped up by young, fresh academic graduates wearing a NASA shirt, who are deeply atheistic and dispense what they feel is factual and real. However, what is real often takes a back seat to conspiracy theories because, according to them, people find them more fascinating. All I can say is “get some life experiences first before jumping into the bandwagon of the exact, precise and dogmatic of the rational world without restrictions.” Take some Hallucinogens, walk the path of the spirit, and cultivate a cosmic consciousness, as it empowers your intuition with the flexibility and discernment it needs.
The NASA enthusiasts often insist that we should rely on professionals and scientists in every field to satisfy their pursuit of the ultimate truth. However, these scientists and professionals are frequently isolated, focusing on their research. In contrast, those who play the role of “scientists” are often backed by billionaire oligarchs whose real agendas are rooted in conspiratorial ideas that resemble sorcery, mythology, and astrology. These influencers cater to the public’s desire for sensational or hyperrealism news. At the same time, the actual findings presented by real scientists are often perceived as dull or overly technical, too boring to capture media attention. As a result, NASA generates exciting stories about new Earth-like planets they claim to have discovered, filled with vague and sensational details.
The Dunning-Kruger effect: a cognitive bias that even the smartest among us may see themselves as limited and, in their self-awareness, may see others as more competent than they are. And those in a position of power who are not qualified to talk on the subject, but do so given their position. Such is the case with RFK Junior, his brand of talking points persuades some to become ant-vaxxers. JFK seems to be a culmination of conspiracy-theory remoulded into product branding, likened to a TV shopping network selling the latest health benefit discovered by Dr [something], and the sales pitch discrediting already proven health facts. The point here is that the use of facts [false, it may be] is used against those who love to stack facts that use it like an ace in the hole against people who may simply be sceptical.
There have been many facts and proofs by specialists and doctors to indicate the harm that the COVID-19 vaccine does to the body (with a percentage leading to death). The leftist firebrand ignores this healthy scepticism because reason requires a relationship with other qualities to function. Self-referentialism, or the belief that specialisation implies a privileged access to truth, is their firebrand. Sometimes experts get things wrong as well, but in their eyes, experts are never wrong because their delusion is in the absolute. This is a double-edged sword, as the healthy form of scepticism can be hijacked and used to placate corporations and ambitious infomercial branding, or, alongside intellectualism, where scepticism is used in conspiratorial debates to sway certain ideologies.
There is perhaps no better example than Neil deGrasse Tyson when it comes to discussing the contentious narratives surrounding the COVID mandates. He combines a data-driven perspective with a healthy scepticism, suggesting that the vaccine rollout was somewhat of a corporate-driven conspiracy. Tyson engages in complex arguments to persuade people that time was not a critical factor in the development of a cure by scientists. He confirms vaccine trials were conducted over a limited period, during which data was collected to guide the broader population. While there is nothing inherently wrong with rigorous thought and reasoning to support this methodology, the primary concern here revolves around the issue of time. For reference, the influenza virus provides a relevant comparison, as it takes a minimum of five years for sufficient data to become available. Tyson argues that conducting trials and testing within a short timeframe is adequate to justify the deployment of a potentially dangerous vaccine, which could risk harming more individuals than it saves.
The hero modal is introduced here within a fictional science-fantasy mythology that portrays an apocalyptic scenario caused by a virus, which reduces the global population to a few million, creating a dystopian nightmare. This scenario resonates with many, as the populace follows a simulacrum—based on a somewhat realistic fantasy—that has imposed itself in the real world. Unbeknownst to them, it was as much of an inside job as the events of 9/11. Neil deGrasse Tyson states, “People are dying,” and “hospitals are being overrun.” He argues that limited data from a few trials is preferable to allowing more people to die while waiting for trials that are more extensive and rigorous.

There is an assumption in his narrative that systems in place cannot be hijacked or coerced by people [often billionaires] to go in their favour. The Covid mandate was politically neutral on both sides. A more intuitive conspiracy theory, based on spatial awareness and semiotics, is that they had the vaccine already tested and ready to go with the Virus. It was an inside job culminating in the next economic downturn. It is the same old tactic of creating a problem, waiting for the reaction, and then giving the solution playbook.

Tyson with his Solar Cult shirt indicating his part of the secret state/Masonic cult groups; his job is to be spokesperson for scientism to advocate self-referentialism, “scientists say” dogmatic priests that intermingle rationalism and false-rationalism with hyperrealism. Humanities takes a back seat in the cosmic hierarchies, knowing that advanced aliens with godlike powers may roam among us. Of course, gnostic texts tell us otherwise; humanity was the most revered because we had the spark of divinity within us.

MAGA hero-worship and support Trump, whose motivation has nothing to do with appeasing his MAGA base, but merely playing a role as part of a secret state cult group, driven by economic gain to maintain power over a declining empire. While they are in decline, they live richly, but squeeze out the working class in every way. The US borrowed a significant amount of money from China and has accumulated debt. Consequently, the United States’ portion of taxes on interest is paid back to China, which then uses it to fund its military, preparing for the threats the US imposes on them. The US’s taxpayers, including MAGA, are financing China’s Military. China supports Russia against Ukraine, but lends government money to the US, which pays for Ukraine.
The new Superman film isn’t about being pro-Israel or pro-Palestine; instead, it’s focused on recognising the presence of evildoers engaging in malevolent acts. Unfortunately, many within the MAGA movement seem to lack this awareness and understanding. They have a regressive perspective, often rooted in a concept referred to as “whiteness,” a term coined by author W.E.B. Du Bois, who described it as the “psychological wage of whiteness.” Many in this group believe that being white is superior to other identities, mistakenly thinking it places them on the same level as the elites. The elites are aware of this mindset and exploit it for their manipulation, leading those who subscribe to it to grasp at straws. These individuals feel threatened by anyone who is not white, which contributes to their excessive focus on immigrants, often overlooking the underlying facts of the issue. They tend to support punitive measures rather than constructive policies, primarily motivated by a desire to see those who are not white face consequences, which, for them, serves as a form of reward.
A sociopath collective where there is no empathy for the other, but a selfish goal with an unmovable faith towards religious absolutes. This is not the kind of suffering associated with animism, where the destructive nourishment reflects a disruption of balance. Nor is this biblical suffering of that kind; it is about a feeling of alienation in a world you exist, but without the romantics of Gnosticism, but an anti-matter version of it.
In Tyson’s scientism worldview, there is a tendency to disregard other people’s doubts and intuition in favour of data, even if that data is inaccurate or fabricated. Health and safety legislators can be influenced by misleading information, effectively creating a social contract that mandates individuals to take a specific vaccine or face termination from their jobs. The moral responsibility we have to one another is not in question here, especially in a post-9/11 context, people understand that external influences can compromise infrastructures. For this reason, linking employment to vaccine compliance undermines the idea of a social contract. Tyson argues that the expectation for people to adhere to this implied social contract is based on the belief that the well-being of society as a whole outweighs potential future risks. However, this contract must be flexible enough to allow for individuals who choose not to take the vaccine without causing harm to themselves or others. Furthermore, those choices should be supported by valid data. Ultimately, this perspective emphasises that individual free will should take precedence over speculative outcomes.
We live in a system where confidence often trumps competence, particularly evident in job interviews. Consider two candidates: one has an impeccable resume but is less confident and slightly autistic, while the other is brimming with confidence despite having less experience and fewer qualifications. The confident candidate is likely to succeed, as the system tends to prioritise perceived qualities over actual abilities. This reflects a broader societal trend; the world often operates on a simulation of reality. However, it doesn’t have to be this way. The system should be flexible enough to find the right balance, allowing for evolution beyond its current default state.
Conspiracy theories have a narrative that invokes a type of mythology, and there have always been myths attached to storytelling. We are fascinated by them, and given that conspiracy theories can now be reduced to sound-bite memes, the argument falls into laziness; considering scrolling on your phone needs to garner your attention, and a full thesis is not a suitable model for that. The objective is to go viral, and the chosen subject is conspiracy theory, resulting in viral paranoia among the masses; it causes the consumer to internalise mediocrity about the subject. What had been a romantic appeal for a curious fringe group researching paranormal phenomena in the early days of internet forums has become a pigeonhole, politicised, and polarised in our modern age. It has to evolve in a way that balances intelligence and confidence; otherwise, you fall into a destitute wasteland of reactionaries.
Before the internet and before memes, TV news networks’ process was to televise the news, and news that is ultimately horrifying; if it were just good news, the ratings would fall. This methodology is the standard; conspiracy theories and the paranormal fall into the same mould. It’s just that social media has made them more ever-present and intrusive. American Solipsism has a habit of insinuating that the world outside their bubble is the same as theirs and therefore speculating that their wants and needs are the same.
The U.S. educational system is inadequate; we need to consider the declining quality of education in the U.S. in terms of writing, literacy, and historical facts—skills that are increasingly lacking compared to other countries in the Western world, which tend to excel in these areas. The H-1B visa has historically positioned the U.S. as a central hub for technological advancement, as many PhD candidates were foreign-born. However, with the rise of a fascist regime in the U.S. that eliminated the H-1B visa, many PhD candidates returned to their home countries. This exodus contributed to the development of those countries as technical competitors. There is an assumption that U.S.-born students can fill the vacuum left by these international scholars, but this assumption has been proven false. The expertise and innovations brought by foreign PhD holders are of such a high calibre that domestic students cannot easily replace them in the same capacity.
Outside the U.S., there is often a better ability to distinguish between what is real and what is fabricated. This distinction is not merely about the nuances or the certainty of myths and stories that provide comfort in the face of uncertainty. Unlike the U.S., the rest of the Western world does not rely on conspiracy theories as a source of comfort; they are generally more grounded. Conspiracy theories can act as either an infection or a cure, depending on one’s mindset. Some individuals use conspiracy theories to mask their uncertainty by denying them any credibility, while others give them too much credibility, choosing to ignore the facts.
It’s not that the rest of the world can’t discern conspiracy theories because they can, and they have a type of discerning flexibility. It’s mostly a United States phenomenon, specifically in the Bible belt area, that surfaced problems along with their unmovable obtuseness. This is the same as those that follow “scientist say” stacking of facts, false facts and hyperrealism.
Superpowers – Academics don’t understand Conspiracy-Theory & Intuition: Political Scientist Eric Oliver touches upon the fundamental question I raised earlier about the need for healthy scepticism, which should not fall under the firebrand of right-wing conservatism, as well as the hyperrealism of the rational world on the left. Oliver claims that conspiracy theories and the people who follow or study them are drawing on their intuitions to make sense of the world. He correlates conspiracy theories as a reason for the US’s current political divide. Still, it’s deeper than the red and blue division and that we are divided by intuitionists and rationalists.
The process of “collecting surveys” is hardly a science. This is not only due to the significant flaws and biases inherent in the surveying method, but also because of its other approaches; it simply does not qualify as an actual science. The individual in question earns half a point for his argument, yet he is mostly incorrect. He attempts to highlight the weaknesses of intuition by alluding to the irrational and fantastical beliefs of extreme conspiracy theorists, suggesting that magical thinking is inherently intuitive. However, one must conclude that religious belief is fundamentally magical rather than faith-based, when in fact data indicates that faith is predominantly rooted in belief, such as biblical literalism.
Intuition, as a concept, is closely tied to Gnosticism, providing it with a practical and essential existential quality. There are two forms of intuition: the first is a basis for action taken without the luxury of reflection. The second is a passive form, where intuition serves as a way for us to express ourselves. Our reality is dynamic, characterised by a swirling interplay between our inner selves and our outer awareness. John Ralston Saul emphasises the idea of permanent movement and uncertainty, suggesting that movement is synonymous with life, while certainty equates to death. Thus, movement and uncertainty are fundamental realities.
Sometimes, faith can resemble fiction; however, an animistic and non-rational perspective offers intuitive evidence through synchronicities. Faith often develops from literal interpretations rather than intuition, especially when we fear, deny, or undervalue our intuitive abilities. We may use intuition either accidentally or deceptively, which complicates our understanding of it, particularly when intuition is viewed as a weakness. What is there to fear about intuition? It normalises non-intellectual functions, celebrates ignorance, and can lead to superstitious thinking. This dynamic impacts personal relationships, social structures, and both private and public power, representing a departure from a deeper understanding. The MAGA movement exploits this aspect of faith without grounding it in intuition or factual evidence.

Materialists: | Hyletics: | In nature, they can only recognise the physical reality, earthbound materialistic | ||
True-believers: | Psychics: | Middle orientation between the body and spirit, ready for Gnosis, but hesitant | ||
Spiritual Individuals: | Pneumatics: | Transcended their bonds to the world and are free. | |
.
Valentinus introduced three classes of people to describe the stages of human intuition and spiritual evolution: 1. Hyletics, 2. Psychics, and 3. Pneumatics. For many Christians, spiritual understanding often aligns with that of materialists, mirroring the views held by some atheists; both perspectives can be seen as two sides of the same coin. However, Christians who engage with conspiracy theories often find themselves oscillating between the Hyletic and Psychic stages. In many ways, they exhibit Hyletic characteristics, as they rely on faith alone without demonstrating intuition or critical thinking. This is evident in their lack of awareness regarding upcoming political policy changes that could impact their lives. When they base their beliefs solely on faith, without grounding in intuition, it can lead to rigid religious absolutes, particularly in the form of end-times eschatology among true believers.
In this context, “true-believers” may appear to be ready for Gnosis, but this perception disguises the idea that there is a prerequisite for enlightenment. Materialists can also be true believers, as seen in their delusions of hyperrealism, such as Transhumanism, which involves transferring consciousness through AI technologies. Often, these endeavours are funded by groups aligned with the State-Cult that practice occult magic and sorcery, favouring Faustian contracts with entities instead of pursuing the intuitive evolution and enlightenment of the soul. In this analogy, new atheists represent materialists, resembling fundamentalists, as both embody true believers. Both groups can shift between these identities but often lack the necessary intuitive insights; overall, their understanding remains incomplete.
Eric Oliver’s analysis to polarise intuition between intuitionists and rationalists is somewhat short-sighted, and there is an apparent attempt to pigeonhole intuition as a weakness. When viewed in this light, it can permeate bias. Traditional Christians often deny intuition because they reject magic; to believe in magic would mean accepting intuition. Ostensibly, the natural part of our psyche that of intuition infers then into occultism, which is something Christians can’t fathom. The Atheist and rational view it the same way, they see the weakness of intuition leading to superstition as a non-intellectual function, thereby solidifying intuition as magical, and only magical people follow conspiracy theories.
The idea of examining magic from a political scientist’s perspective does not support the notion of unobservable forces but instead focuses on explanations that can be observed. Henri Bergson argued that while intuition plays a crucial role in science, it is often seen as marginal. He suggested that for intuition to convey itself effectively, it must adopt a “mode of expression and application” that aligns with our habitual ways of thinking, which emphasises “exactitude and precision.” Over time, we tend to confuse “the logical tools of science” with science itself. This insight suggests that intuition is both real and utilised; therefore, we should create space for it in our inquiries. Instead of marginalising intuition, we should formulate questions that encourage exploration beyond strictly rational or linear answers.
Eric Oliver summarises that magical thinking is a fundamental aspect of conspiracy theories, as it often involves supernatural or paranormal phenomena that complement these theories. However, theorising about conspiracies—primarily through the lens of supernatural or paranormal elements—should not be used to validate this action. This approach presents a flawed perspective, as the desire for rational observation can lead to perceiving things that are not present. This tendency is evident when science’s hyperrealism is mistakenly regarded as factual. Conspiracy theories often draw on mythology and faith, which tend to associate them more closely with religious beliefs. This inclination tends to favour right-wing ideologies. Ultimately, while conspiracy theories attempt to replace mystery with explainable language, they struggle to coexist with the hyperrealism of science. In contrast, hyperrealism offers limitless potential and opportunities for exploration and movement.
He leverages weakness in reason, like how it draws our anxiety and emotion, this fear is the new vanguard for intuition when it’s just one of its many aspects. It is the fear of its uncertainty that we marginalise to a point where we deny intuition. We do so to restrain non-intellectual functions because anti-intellectualism might seep into normal behaviour and then indulge in superstition. It is the fear of intuition that has gripped MAGA and normalised this fear and uncertainty in their personalities and social structures, as they replaced uncertainty with worship, beseeching a demagogue who holds governmental power.
We have gained extensive knowledge about intuition, its functions, and how to use it effectively, a subject that has developed over a century of study. Philosophical innovations often arise from intuition, which has not been entirely dismissed. Most of the scepticism has come from a structural standpoint, while the rest has embraced intuition, particularly in the arts. The rational perspective has denied its significance, whereas many others have celebrated it, not only in the arts but also through psychologism—the normalisation of the psychosomatic and archetypes. In integrating Jung’s inherited thought patterns, we realise that a non-rational force has been acknowledged in our civilisation. But where does this idea originate? It emerges from the infinite cosmic well of our collective unconscious, and to fear it is to perceive it as dark and murky.
To make it dark so it can’t be seen, it’s a rational side of endearment; it’s also the chance to accentuate for young kids that there are no monsters under the bed – to hide a very accurate, yet shadowy, side of humanity.

.
Fear typically accentuates the individual subconscious safety mechanism. Regarding adults and their children, one should wait for their children to realise that there are no monsters in the closet/bed. And what they fear is a natural mechanism of the spirit giving us a warning to ensure our antennas or intuition is functioning; one should not ignore this basis of reinforcement. Often, intuition is an external function, and your kid’s antennas on a particular occasion might have caught a broadcast – it’s like falling victim to a Siren’s Isle; you have become a martyr to the lure of the siren’s song.
Emotions are unpredictable and varied; fear is only one polar aspect of our feelings, the other being love, but fear is the only one chosen as an emotion attached to conspiracy theory as an explanation to rationalise that emotional experience. Concluding intuitions are based on one aspect of our feelings because intuition has a subconscious safety mechanism. This particular variable is the difference or the separation between humans and animals. Animals primarily function through their ability to sense danger through heightened senses and learned behaviour.
Conspiracy theory is not beholden to non-rational intuitive acts alone; normal rational intuitive actions, such as logic, pattern recognition, semiotics, and synchronicities, make up the bulk of conspiracy theory, and theorising might be used as an instrument of intuition for several conclusive ideas at once. Seemingly, the same process whereupon the Logos becomes a persuasive case by appealing to one’s intellect and the ability to think critically.
Jung understood our reality where intuition played a pivotal role: “The primary function of intuition is to transmit mere images or perceptions of relations and conditions, which could not be transmitted by other means or only in very roundabout ways.” He deduces our intuition to mere images, but they are also where our imaginations are fruitful. Suppose reality permits and acknowledges the weakness in intuition. In that case, it’s the best form when it merges with imagination, reason, common sense and ethics that can produce polices products and theories, alongside artistic pursuits.
Our modern challenge regarding intuition is that we have incorporated it into our civilisation in a way that seems self-evident; however, it remains ignored mainly in how we manage our affairs. This apparent self-evidence is exemplified by attempts to connect conspiracy theories to our emotions and, consequently, our intuition. However, this connection often leads to errors. Our greatest weakness concerning intuition stems from our denial of it, which is rooted in fear. This fear drives us to seek explanations that match our feelings, and conspiracy theories often provide those explanations. Thus, the argument posits that while the relationship between conspiracy theories and political divides appears self-evident, it is actually limited. The dynamic is more psychological or intellectual, lacking in genuine intuition, rather than being inherently intuitive.
Those enamoured with conspiracy theories may be emotional, but they are not intuitive, as Jung said in a roundabout way. Having intuition means being able to transmit our imagination, which involves being able to imagine the other, to step into someone else’s shoes, and to be empathetic. It’s the fear and denial of intuition, not intuition itself, that had them grasping for straws. Conspiracy theory just happened to be there, and it gave disenfranchised Traditional Christens a way to find meaning towards the inevitable crunch of late capitalism. Conservatism, after forty years, didn’t become more intuitionists, but more rationalists. As there is a spiritual component to end-times eschatology, it is a blind faith argument surrounding a purely rational and instrumental way of understanding. The same faith allows them blind support for a demagogue.
If you disconnect conspiracy theories from the MAGA movement, what remains is a troubling mix of narcissism, apathy, fundamentalism, and racism. Conspiracy theories provide a false sense of intuition; however, they are fundamentally rooted in a nihilistic worldview. This group seems more inclined to embrace ideologies that foster hate, segregation, and promote eugenics, adhering to rigid hierarchies—concepts that we collectively abandoned after World War II. For them, choosing fascism and malevolence over hope and democracy is a response to their constructed sense of victimhood. They often advocate for the interests of the wealthy white capitalist class, which ultimately worsens their own lives. This class promotes a distorted view of whiteness, leading to the scapegoating of a fictitious enemy. Many of these individuals grapple with personal struggles and insecurities, prompting them to adopt conspiracy theories as a means to blame their problems, as well as those of the country, on others. They may consider themselves true believers or even clairvoyants, but they lack genuine spiritual depth.
Just precisely what constructs are they rebelling against? Freedom and democracy are traditionally understood to be heru/hero, overman, or Übermensch ideals. To reject these systems of evaluation means to resist the influence of constructs that can lead to rigidity and institutionalised control. Let’s say this is the gigantic and growing corporate system that is infecting democratic government. To be a hero simply means to reject authoritarians and their systems of evaluations, but also not reject your fellow citizens for an egoistic, exclusive, white utopia ideologue. If you do, then it’s just a construct within a construct because your sense of volition is corrupt. Backwards ideals, solipsism and not fully understanding socialism have their set conscious sliding between neo-liberalism and fascism as the only recourse.
There must be a prerequisite for true, actual spiritual intuitive abilities, and there is, it’s being enlightened. They are those who have undergone cosmic consciousness, a spiritual evolution that results in individuals possessing actual spiritual abilities. However, a distinction arises between enlightenment processes and being struck by the light of grace. No more so than the illustrative appeal of Paul’s conversion on the road to Damascus.
Saul, also known as Paul, was travelling to Damascus when he was struck by a blinding light from heaven, which caused him to lose his sight. This light symbolises grace and suggests that enlightenment and conversion are processes that take time. It represents a beam of light penetrating the rigidity of unbelief, or, in modern terms, the inflexible rational mind. A voice, identified as Jesus, asked Saul why he was persecuting him. Blinded by the light, Saul was led into Damascus, where he remained without sight for three days. This indicates that, despite the heavenly and wholesome nature of the light of grace, it serves as an intuitive gift bestowed upon Saul, rather than something he sought out himself. The light was intentionally used to blind Saul.
This serves as a commentary on the collective blindness and lack of intuition present within the MAGA movement. Jesus then instructed Ananias to heal Saul, and upon regaining his sight, Saul was filled with the Holy Spirit and baptised. While this event can be seen as a metaphor for a sudden and profound change of heart or belief, it also highlights that, for MAGA, it was only through negative and oppressive circumstances that they gained clarity and understanding.
You neither have to seek enlightenment nor wait for a moment of grace to have a spiritual experience; it can be arbitrary at times. While having an open mind can be beneficial, those who actively seek spiritual experiences often find them to be valuable experiences. The Christian doctrine tends to dilute this idea by suggesting that spiritual experiences come primarily through Jesus, emphasising faith in him rather than encouraging individuals to seek their cosmic consciousness.
Superpowers – Evangelical Trumpers are Driven by Demonic thought Forms not Intuition: During the 1980s in the Televangelical era, these groups internalised fundamentalism as preachers filled concert halls. During this time where the alt-right was dominant it introduced a relativity new group new-fundamentalist-Christian-conspiracy-theory groups, they popped into the scene. They’re responsible for spear heading this amorphous MAGA phenomenon that have become a death cult; groups indicative to cult power disguised as a religion.
By the late 1980s, the image of Nazis was often associated with skinheads crashing punk concerts, where punks were embracing a new rebellion against modern authorities. These skinheads were typically isolated yet tough and gritty—outsiders bound by a strong sense of brotherhood. This camaraderie often filled a void in their identities as they felt challenged by an environment that was rapidly changing, marked by a new wave of cultural enterprise.
However, by the end of the 1990s, this dynamic began to fade, and as the new millennium approached, something emerged from this dark underbelly. The average white middle-class male, with his polo shirts, started to emerge from the shadows of their extremist beliefs, emboldened by an administration that manipulated their ideology to align with nationalist and conservative values. As a result, they became empowered, culminating in figures like the White House Chief of Staff, who proudly identified with Nazi ideals. The alt-right succeeded in broadening a racist movement, drawing in a larger segment of the middle class.
Brought together by the internet, a red (black) pill movement has been collectivised by a collective mindset and an intensified form of nihilism. This ideology posits that everything is corrupt and that the existing system is inherently flawed and destined to collapse. Followers are encouraged to root for this collapse and even to assist in hastening the process, believing that a golden age will follow. As a result of this belief system, they feel justified in breaking laws and societal norms. This parallels Trump’s blatant disregard for the laws and the Constitution upon which the United States is founded.
They view society as morally corrupt and believe it deserves to collapse, hoping that a better society will emerge afterwards, often referred to as a “golden age.” This perspective parallels the end-time eschatology of dispensational fundamentalism. However, their expectation of a golden rebirth or a perfect city following this collapse reflects a misguided naivety. Considering the cyclical nature of history, the cycle of death and rebirth of civilisations does not lead to a paradise; instead, it often results in bleakness. A reminder of this can be found in the violent disruptions that occurred at the onset of the New World.
They romanticise the 1950s family archetype as a nostalgic ideal, believing it to represent values that they feel are absent in today’s society. This wish fulfilment stems from their inability to see that these images were meticulously crafted for marketing purposes rather than reflecting reality. The 1950s were marked by rampant racism and wars; the idealised image of the time served as a veneer to conceal these harsh truths. In online spaces where incels and proponents of the “manosphere” congregate, there is often an influx of nationalist rhetoric. When these forums go uncensored, it breeds complacency, allowing extremist views to fester and evolve into a consolidated movement like MAGA.
They have projected an artificial image of a Christian nation borrowing faith, morality, and cultural identity as a foundation. While depicting a devotion to Christianity, their actions and rhetoric of these proclaimed believers are ignorant of it when you test them. MAGA contradicts every fundamental teaching of the Christian faith. Instead, hatred, cruelty, and exclusion define the behaviour of those who claim to follow Jesus Christ. Trump has become the moral standard for a movement that insists on calling itself Christian. Christianity is a religion of humility and sacrifice, but MAGA transformed into an ideology of conquest and resentment.
They have prosecution complexes together with mental illness and personality disorders alongside doses of conspiracy-theory blasted 24 hours of propaganda, Fox News, it has their (Jungian) shadow overrun by fear. And we’ve discussed weakness in intuition is by fear it. Often, with the notion or feeling that their dominance over society is eroding, but in reality, nobody is taking away their right to believe, worship, or practice their faith. What they resist is that they can no longer impose their will on others without resistance – this sense of victimhood has steered them to an obsession with revenge.
Examining any policy that expands rights for marginalised communities is seen as an attack on their freedom, and any efforts to create a more inclusive society are met with rage. They do not fight for religious liberty; they fight to maintain America where their Christianity and fundamentalism are the only ones that are allowed to hold power.
This was a pre-Trump era, when the last remnants of Reagan conservatism were about to fade away. This shift was driven by hero worship and romanticised ideals, exemplified by the symbolic gesture of “taking the red pill.” However, those who embrace this mindset often lack genuine intuition or meaningful insight. Their intuition has become disconnected, overshadowed by darker influences. As a result, they become targets—naive individuals who believe anything they’re told.
Elon Musk’s NAZI symbolic gestures seem to embolden those who dwell in darkness, pushing them out of their comfort zones. Musk, where some has criticised for his controversial views, has removed the stigma of shame and guilt that often accompanies fascism, unfortunately giving it legitimacy. This dissonance between how we see ourselves and how others perceive us can lead to feelings of embarrassment. Reality and facts remain indifferent to the feelings of fascists. Musk’s ego appears to have a quick rebound period, possibly influenced by Ketamine, which may numb him or heighten his awareness of his shortcomings as a genius. He has stated that he uses Ketamine because he experiences “a negative chemical state in my brain”—essentially referring to it as battling “demons of the mind” or Demonic thought forms.
It seems ironic that his demonic thought forms drive him, while his entire persona revolves around rocket science, which is fundamentally linked to the rational jargon of physics and formulas. This is the rhetoric of rationalism, often disguised as scientism. In this context, corporate oligarchs have created a cult of self-referentialism, where phrases like “scientists say” are used to validate their claims. Their followers, often seen wearing NASA shirts, become targets and unwitting participants in this phenomenon. Fascinated by the allure of rocketry and the hyperrealism of space exploration, they accept these ideas as self-evident, leaving little room for scepticism, and consider their common sense superior to those who fall for conspiracy theories.
Rocket science has become a form of altar worship; it is more akin to a religion than anything else. It resembles a mystery religion that seeks to emerge from the unconscious mould that it dwells in. In this light, both the cult of scientism and Christian fundamentalism—now represented by MAGA—are co-opted movements; their quest for truth is overshadowed by a different influence reminiscent of Mithraism.

It seems coincidental that the Heir to the Rocket Man King, Elon, whose own mythology is made manifest through Werner von Braun’s science fiction: Project Mars, has the same kind of mythology surrounding Epstein. Donald Barr was the headmaster of a prestigious school at Dalton, where, a year before his tenure, he published a science fiction novel, titled Space Relations. An unsettling book about rape, enslaved people, especially teenage girls, and other coercive sex acts for the dual purpose of entertainment.
Three months after he departed from the school, Epstein started teaching there at Barr’s recommendation. Donald Barr’s son, William Barr, before becoming attorney general, worked for the CIA – Donald would lead the Epstein investigation. Epstein was also said to have an intelligence connection through his wife’s father, Maxwell. And Maxwell is alleged to have recruited Epstein for Israeli intelligence. As we know Epstein and Trump are close friends who made trips to infamous island.
The new normal has crossed a new Rubicon where sex cults, intelligence agencies, and authoritarianism are part of government which is eroding democracy. Implemented secret police with masks, prison camps and the scapegoated enemy where all things must be blamed towards immigration & brown people – and against whom all things are justified. The intense focus on immigration issues has led to a distorted perspective on race theory. A misunderstanding of communism and socialism has hindered the development of a better quality of life. Meanwhile, the rest of the Western world has prospered, with improvements in living standards resulting from the introduction of universal healthcare and social security. As living conditions become increasingly intolerable, people begin to resort to scapegoating; often blaming past Democratic presidents who, despite their flaws, implemented policies that ultimately benefited them.

The masks in “Watchmen” serve as a powerful symbol, representing both the protective role of law enforcement and the potential for abuse of power and secrecy. The show delves into the moral ambiguity of masked characters, both within law enforcement and outside of it, prompting viewers to question who is genuinely fighting for justice. Similarly, during Trump’s administration, an agency created to resemble an immigration enforcement body resembles a quasi-Nazi political police force, driven by an executive order rather than by Congressional approval.
The youth, once regarded as the hope for a better future, are now being radicalised by a misguided ideology. Democratic socialism is not evil; you have been misled. The spokesperson for late-stage capitalism, Trump, has fueled his supporters’ anger to an alarming degree, ignoring the facts about the economy and immigration. It’s often overlooked that a wealthy entity controls 92% of Americans’ wealth, and minorities and immigrants are not responsible for economic hardship. These statements are not conspiracy theories; they are rooted in logic and reason.
Nine months before the 2024 US election, Project 2025 emerged —a troubling document produced by a think tank that appeared to promote fascist ideas. These ideologies were cleverly concealed within various policies and legislation, and the content filled me with a sense of dread and anxiety, even though I am not a US citizen and have no stake in their political drama. I find it hard to believe that many others in the US did not share similar feelings. It’s unsettling to consider that this concern may not have been widely felt.
Trump has become the embodiment of what intellectuals have been warning about for the past 40 years: a proto-fascist in the making, or a fascist if he wins the upcoming election. He won in 2016 without a real plan, and at that time, he was guided by advisors who still valued democracy. With Project 2025 and his nationalistic rhetoric, a growing sense of dread is emerging as the election approaches. Many in independent media have tried to warn the public about what might happen, assuming this would help break their cognitive dissonance. Surely, people can’t be so blind or unintuitive about the situation.
As the election draws near, tracking polls appear close, but this seems more like an appeasement for the public. Trump has hinted at the possibility of rigging the election, making a cryptic statement that “you’ll never have to vote again.” After the election, evidence emerged to support this theory. Ironically, his claims that Biden rigged the election lost all credibility when courts dismissed them based on factual evidence. With the backing of Elon Musk, the likely outcome of the election has become increasingly apparent.
No warning from reasonable individuals can penetrate the cognitive dissonance experienced by the demoralised. For decades, the Heritage Foundation has deliberately manipulated various institutions and the Church in America, using this as justification for both power and cruelty. The divide between Protestant and Catholic has diminished as fundamentalism has gained traction within Catholic groups. MAGA has concentrated power and embedded hate as its core ideology. Christianity has undergone a radical transformation, merging with white nationalism to create an entirely new belief system. This new movement—often referred to as white republican Evangelicalism—is not grounded in scripture, but is instead rooted in the belief that America is a divinely chosen nation threatened by outsiders, secularists, and non-believers.
It seems fitting that right-wing intellectuals like Jordan Peterson criticise postmodernism, often using it as a scapegoat for perceived power struggles—a claim that has been proven false. It becomes clear that his audience harbours certain views about power, especially after the recent election, which saw the United States under an administration that sought to perpetuate that power. The rhetoric surrounding the culture war and conspiracy theories has transformed into a nationalist beast fuelled by a mix of groups: fundamentalist racists, Christian conspiracy theorists, supporters of Trumpism and the MAGA movement, along with individuals from 4Chan’s manospheres and incel communities, as well as anti-woke reviewers.
Peterson attempts to redirect the notion of power by blaming it on postmodernism as a distraction. However, postmodernism is not responsible for justifying power. It is ironic that his followers play a central part in manifesting fascism—they submit to a demagogue and his narcissism—and are directly responsible for that corrupt pursuit of power. The idea of “woke” ideology barely scratches the surface of this issue. In their quest for power, these groups have replaced every tenet of Christianity with authoritarian and demonic thought forms. They do not seek salvation but rather control, using the name of Christ as a tool to justify their desire for domination.
The constitution, originally designed to protect religious freedom, is now being reinterpreted as a tool to enforce religious rule. Any policy that does not align with their version of Christian theocracy is viewed as an attack on their faith. This situation was hinted at in the release of Project 2025; however, they ignored the warnings from those with foresight, putting their livelihoods in jeopardy. Despite the risks, they would rather endure suffering than abandon their deep-seated prejudices. In doing so, they not only perpetuate those prejudices but also demand control over the beliefs of others while ostensibly allowing everyone to practice their faith freely.
The standard conservative ideals, which often include cutting taxes, balancing the budget, and advocating for a smaller government that prioritises family values have become fascistic. Some individuals are now openly embracing fascism and promoting anti-intellectualism, believing they can avoid serious consequences because they support dictators over democracy. However, there is no safety net when it comes to oppressive regimes. Liberalism generally prevents harmful ideologies from spreading in society, meaning one cannot hide behind liberal values to justify dangerous beliefs. In the real world, being arrested for advocating fascist ideas comes with serious repercussions. The memories of our collective history serve as a powerful reminder, and the broader population will not allow such ideologies to take root.
