    My working theory is that anyone sufficiently angry with society eventually works their way to socialism. This is the Prelude/Angry Young Man - Billy Joel law of political activation

        This is where Adorno’s whole section about susceptibility to mysticism and bullshit makes sense for his F test

            Adorno devised a personality test that checks if you’re predisposed towards fascist sentiments that he called the F scale. Believing woowoo mysticism bullshit is one of the measures that he argues makes you more likely to agree with fascism and I think Jones and his followers are a good example of why that makes sense
