I wonder if that’s what happened with the Native Americans who couldn’t see the Europeans’ sail ships the first time they encountered it (assuming that event actually happened as described). If you can’t fathom something your brain simply rejects that reality and substitutes one that is easier to accept.
But I’ve also been reading some stories of people who were seemingly true QAnon believers who after January 20th realized that marshal law wasn’t being declared and that Trump really was leaving and how it seemed to shake them. There was also the woman who called CSPAN if I recall correctly, crying because she felt like Trump betrayed her by distancing himself from the Jan 6th insurrectionists and how she just couldn’t make sense of the world. To think that she is the one who finally saw reality for what it was while others continue to believe that this is all a part of some grand plan... how do you even come out of that?
