Episode notes
Why Conspiracies Appeal
- Conspiracy thinking gives people a false sense of control by offering a single puppeteer to blame for chaos.
- Gad Saad explains conspiratorial thinking as an existential hammer that simplifies stochastic events into purposeful plots.
Why Jew-Hatred Persists
- Jew-hatred functions as the ultimate conspiracy because it offers a single, existential culprit for many problems.
- Saad links that durability to cognitive biases and historical patterns rather than any factual justification.
The Hammer Effect In Thinking
- The 'law of the instrument' makes people use a single explanatory tool for diverse problems.
- Saad cites Kaplan and Maslow to show why hammers (conspiracies) dominate certain thinkers' minds.
