Related comment about magical thinking from another thread I just posted:

It’s a conspiracy theory grounded in the very real fact that there are international sex trafficking rings catering to the ultra rich. It isn’t unique to the right, however, and conspiratorial thinking is heavily tied to magical thinking and has a lot of overlap with shit like flat earthers anti-vaxxers and new-age crystal healing wine moms. I highly recommend In Search of a Flat Earth by Folding Ideas and The New Age to Qanon Pipeline episode of Qanon Anonymous
