I was discussing this am how it is impossible to have a civilized discussion with my friends/family about certain topics like climate change. Politely doubting the statistics ENRAGES them. They go from intelligent, calm friendly people to yelling, aggressive monsters in 2 seconds. It's so strange.
My theory is it's advanced brainwashing techniques. I wonder why some of us are less susceptible?
Here is first one. The entire thread still loading for me.

Yup, just like a religion. They have to believe in something or they feel their life is worthless.
