    Shit like this is genuine evidence that conservatives are disproportionately easily suggestible morons who cannot think critically.

    Pathologize them, come on psychology/psychiatry, do it.

    The evidence is here.

    They’re objectively morons who believe what authority figures tell them, they’re functionally disabled in any society that involves … you know, thinking, considering different explanations for things.

    They’re also disproportionately very violent, self-centered, have low impulse control, and are driven by a need to harm those they view as not part of their group.

    They aren’t capable of indepedent moral reasoning.

    They’re also very prone to religious psychoses.

      The airforce in particular is riddled with evagalical religiosity, separation be damned !

        If you didn’t sprinkle Jesus powder on it making a career of blowing up children from an air conditioned trailer might seem like something a human shaped worm would do.

          They’re definitely the most religious. I doubt they’re more right wing than army or marines. MPs were the worst, most cruel people I’ve ever met. Even worse than grunts and I was around a lot of both.

            Totally makes sense that MPs are the worst kinds of people… just dang, guess I was not well informed about the uh, spiritual character of the Air Force.

                  LMAO, probably more than you’d think. Also, lots of cucks and hotwifing/sharing in the army/marines.

                    I’d heard rumors.

                    Or maybe rather uh… barking and whimpering.

                    Also totally makes sense that Army/Marines have just fully gotten onboard with hotwiving and cuckoldry… its… essentially legendary how unfaithful a huge number of military wives are.

                    I guess just actually codifying and normalizing that is superior to the old way of dealing with it, which was family secrets, alcoholism, murder, etc.

          the OFFicer ranks and higher are filled with them. im guessing the enlisted have to be coaxed towards it. thats why THEY wanted ERIKA kirk on one of thier governing boards.

      thats why they fall for actual scams very easily, they like to believe otherwise , like something that is too good to be true, cant be bad, they actually something is too good to be true as fact.
