At the same time, they don't really behave that much differently from some humans that have been sucked down the path of various conspiracy theories. For a lot of those, the first "lesson" is 'everyone else is wrong and have been deceived or are trying to trick you, trust nobody but us'. From there, some people end up going down the rabbit-hole to become "Sovereign Citizens" or storm congress.
