Someone (who chose not to be tagged in this post) asked this question:
How are some of us aware and appalled that this (misinformation) is happening and others just go all in with the conspiracies?
What do you all think? What makes the difference?
Please refrain from just calling people stupid, I know it can definitely feel that way, but we can do better than that.

@RickiTarr persistence from the discommunicators. Time is a real factor for thought. Convincing influential people such that they don't think they're lying so they can use their social capital. Persistence. Saying it over and over so that people get tired of hearing the disinformation, then it feels benign and can seap ito actual thoughts.
