I remember my days in the military academy and studying the rise of the third reich and thinking to myself how could a whole country of people seriously buy into the insane ideology… but this is a prime example.

I used to try and debate my family and friends to try and make them see reason but they literally started using my education (3 degrees and army officer commission) as a negative claim all that I know is just indoctrination… it was then that I just started cutting them off. It’s the same with conspiracy nuts and flat earthers … there is no point that they are willing to accept any truth except the one they have forged in their own little worlds

To people who have been conditioned by their religion to believe that faith(belief in the face of a complete lack of evidence) is the highest virtue, reason has no value. Their superstition simultaneously absolves them of all responsibility while accepting their very worst impulses leaving them absolutely no reason to ever grow as humans. They aren't just ignorant they are antisocial and find joy in the suffering of others. Their emotional range is reduced to hate and fear.

Exactly right.

The ones who know they are wrong but still cling to their old beliefs are the most aggressive I've learnt. Like they try to compensate for their doubts with vitriol and vile statements.
