I avoided indoctrination by being a complete thick headed, bucket minded, starch pressed, ding dong of a child. When I was young and the internet was new, I got really into conspiracy theories. Complete child mentality. Enough brain power to see that something is wack but not enough to think critically about the "Illuminati" angle and process what capital is and how it manifests in society. Complete 1D level thinking.

"Ruby Ridge, that's a yikes from me dawg. That's why we should vote for less government."

"Waco is why your mom should be a gun"

"Ted Kazinczy is why it takes 6-8 weeks to get anything from Lillian Vernon"

I would talk about conspiracy theories all the time and I remember there were people in my life that really wanted me to read "The Turner Diaries". They would tell me "If you really want to know whats going on your should really read this book". No lie, I thought that was the book that inspired the movie "Turner and Hooch" and would just smile and nod while thinking "Damn, Tom Hanks is cool and all but I don't know what that has to do with what I'm talking about my dude."

So when they asked if I read it I thought "yeah, I watched the movie that the same thing" and the radicalization process would always hit a dead end when they try to talk about the book and I kept thinking about scenes from a fucking buddy cop movie with a dog.
