>>16995042 Conspiracy denialism is a lack of basic pattern recognition. Trusting the government is a symptom of terminal domestication. It carries the same consequences of mental deficiency it does in cattle.
>>16995045 /thread they should make Conspiracy Denial part of the DSM. imagine thinking the government cares about your health after the clotshot fiasco
Didn't they cure some recently? Certain types? And chemo can cure some cancer, in certain people. Probably not hiding it, it's probably just very experimental. Cancer is generally an older persons disease and you are very unlucky if you get it young.
>>16995045 While I agree government officials should be considered guilty until proven innocent, in this case the claims make no sense. Even in the picture shown there is no single "government" so the assumption becomes "all governments are working together in concert to hide a cure for cancer." And even that works on the assumption that medical advances come FROM the government and not pharmaceutical companies or academic research. In most places governments are in charge of what treatments can be released to the public outside of controlled trials, but if something could actually cure a type of cancer it would be known to many others before some cabal of government officials could bury it.
>>16995045 Based. Conspiracy denialism is a just a cultural hegemonic-Orwellian trick to keep lemmings from grasping that a global crime syndicate rules the west.
>>16995042 The government wouldn't want people to quit their jobs early due to cancer that's not economical, those people aren't being productive. There are individuals who benefit from cancer, and maybe they make some effort to impede cancer cures, but entire governments? Not really beneficial for them and difficult to keep under wraps.
>>16995076 They do one or two every year, but approval takes forever and shit is expensive. But there's lots of cancers so, they won't run out of them anytime soon.
>>16995042 this is just a measure of trust in institions, only retarded teacher's pets that peaked in middle school think this is correlated with iq in any way
>>16995045 >Conspiracy denialism is a lack of basic pattern recognition You're putting all conspiracy theories in the same basket, which is as Notinker™ as the people who believes none.
You are incapable of thinking, deducting, analyzing, or pattern recognition. But want to be different, so you just buy the opposite.
If you 2026 haven't managed to see yet how many conspiracy believers obviously gets manipulated and herded, without a functioning thought in their own brain, you're fucking blind.
>>16995045 >Trusting the government is a symptom of terminal domestication There's a difference between trusting the government and being a retard. I know that my government is up to some shit. I know they are incompetent. I know that various lobby groups influence the fuck out of them. I know that some of the people in power have personal connections and conflicts of interest. I know that many of the policies they try to push are not in my interest and will do active harm to the country. But therefore thinking that any stupid conspiracy like OP pic has to be true, just because I think the government is bad, is absolutely braindead
>>16995042 this is pretty much just a heatmap of how much of a corrupt shithole each country is. When the leadership in a country is insanely corrupt, the population just start automatically assuming that anything evil they can imagine the government will do, even if it makes no logical sense.
Like, the 34% in UK aren't REALLY thinking about cancer specifically. When they hear the question, they think "would the UK government lie to me? Yes, they would. That's their favorite thing to do".
