From my brief time exploring it, many there seem to think the end always justifies the means, and are oblivious to the means being the likely effective end. For example: China is apparently only temporarily embracing capitalism on its way to utopian communism. I haven’t followed the trump support that was alluded to here, but I assume it’s similarly reaching the limits of their forward reasoning. At some point, some talking points pop into their head to reinforce or build on their existing beliefs, and they pat themselves and their fellow comrades on the back.

Some are well prepared to run circles around you with their well trained mental gymnastics. It’s not dissimilar to the flat earthers, or other conspiracy theorists. You just have to believe to be saved (from critical thinking). It’s best not to engage, but rather observe from a distance.
