Synopsis
What made a prominent conspiracy-theorist YouTuber finally see that 9/11 was not a hoax? How do voter opinions shift from neutral to resolute? Can widespread social change only take place when a generation dies out? McRaney explores the limits of reasoning, the power of groupthink, and the effects of deep canvassing. The result is an eye-opening journey among cult members, conspiracy theorists, and political activists, from Westboro Baptist Church picketers to LGBTQ campaigners in California, that ultimately challenges us to question our own motives and beliefs. McRaney demonstrates the rare but transformative circumstances under which minds can change. - adapted from publisher info provided
