These are the same types of idiots that think they're going to be targets of a terror attack in some small backwater town.

These types of propaganda methods really resonate with boomer types.

I remember someone that thought that they were going to be mailed anthrax back when they had the anthrax scare in the US.

1. How much anthrax do you think terrorists have that they could afford to mail it to you, a random person in the US?

2. Why do you think you're so important that you're going to be targeted?

You need to either be clueless or really full of yourself to think these scenarios apply to you.

The only time you're possibly going to be caught up in something is if you're going to an important or significant place, or you're interacting with people much more important than you are.

"AAAHHH! Hamas are attacking... Doncaster?"

Stupid ass

for a second I thought this was a fucking onion article lol

Real talk, we have to figure out how to handle this kind of chronic fear and paranoia, because this shit ain't normal, but it is frighteningly common.

Like yeah this is a hilariously over-the-top example, but the amount of people you and I both know who go through life genuinely thinking that they're going to be the victim of a kidnapping or worse at any given time is astounding. And it's not without impact either, because this is exactly the unfounded sense of fear that conservatives/fascists seize on to manipulate the population.

I don't know the solution, but a world where everyone is afraid of their own shadow is a literal hellscape.

That picture is not Doncaster, It's Devils Dyke in Sussex, UK. It is facing East toward Chanctonbury Ring (furtherest hill in the distance). Behind the photographer will be a pub and a carpark. Its a drive of about 230 miles between there and Doncaster. #justsaying

They found a photo of the leader

Holy propaganda victim

Do you know what else terrorists use all over the world? Cars! How long will we allow these dangerous contraptions to be freely available?

How deep do you need to be in the propaganda to think like that?

Oh no! If they take out Doncaster, who will eat all the Gregg's?
