Initially, what strikes me is this type of thinking isn't far off from radicalized religious zealotry, be it "personal God", evengelical Christian fundamentalist, extreme sects of Orthodox Jews, extremist Muslim sects, extremist Mormons and others.

It isn't a far leap in the USA if your already familiar with or involved in this type of religious indoctrination and the type of fantastical thinking being put forth by Q, Oath Keepers, Proud Boys, and other fringe groups.

...and I can't help but think about X Files and Molder who would say, "iI want to believe...".

Interesting stuff and dangerous.
