Malone carries himself like a disgruntled lover:

"If I can't have her....no one can".

If Malone was up for a Nobel prize, would he be all over Right Wing media disparaging the vaccines?

Probably not. 1/ Image
If Malone was up for a Nobel Prize, he'd most likely be downplaying side effects of his "brilliant invention" as a minor/necessary risk.

At this point, the amount of attention/adulation he gets as the darling of the Bannon/Rogan audiences far exceeds that given to scientists. 2/
Malone is not going back....and as his "I alone" and 1930 era Germany comments indicate...

...he's going to give the people what they want...

...because the people give him what he wants:

Attention, adulation, and the money that will come with it.

False predictions reinforce the addiction:

"The *anticipation* and the 50/50 optimization of dopamine production may explain why people aren't deterred when predictions, and the expectations created by those predictions, do not come true in cult situations or with Qanon." 1/

Several threads analyzing the neurobiological and cognitive processes underlying Qanon and conspiracy theory susceptibility/belief:

“’maybe’, is addictive like nothing else out there”.

“Maybe”, is the essence of conspiracy theories:

“Maybe, X is happening/occurring”

First a thread on cognitive processes, and Qanon as religion:....2a/....

At the :50 mark, Malone points out "I alone" rhetoric in "mass formation psychosis".

Whether he's oblivious of its application to Trumpism, or gaslighting...the Right & the anti-vax identity politics coalition will embrace this assessment of society...1/
Here is the actual video of Trump's "I alone" speech....which the "Authoritarian Followers" eagerly consumed.

Yet when mental health professions/historians/etc, pointed out parallels in Trump's psychological profile, w/that of other authoritarians...2/ cnbc.com/video/2016/07/…
.....or made references to the parallels to Germany in the 1930's....the Right rolled their eyes and claimed that everyone had "Trump Derangement Syndrome". 3/
