As my colleague Matteo Wong wrote after spending time with people in this cohort earlier this year, politics, the economy, and current events are essentially irrelevant to the true believers. It’s hard to care about tariffs or authoritarian encroachment or getting a degree if you believe that the world as we know it is about to change forever.
Interesting comment. IMO this mindset seems to match the radically religious right and also religious earthers and clearly involves maga'ts.
