The allure of paranoia
4:25:22 2024-08-28 1240

Negative emotions are there to keep us safe. They alert our brains to potential problems or threats in environment. Because we as part of groups, most people are very sensitive and adaptive to the way people think and feel within groups. Groups create their own rules and norms and ways of thinking about the world.

Social cognition is a survival mechanism that originally helped our ancestors stay alert to potential threats by understanding and learning from groups. However, this capacity for social understanding can be manipulated, especially in online groups.

Some groups encourage maladaptive ways of thinking about the world, distorting our natural ability to understand other people and groups and reinterpreting the world in line with the group’s distorted interpretation of reality.

One straightforward example of how groups can distort the perception of reality is by promoting paranoid thinking (also referred to as paranoid social cognition).

Paranoid thinking involves three key elements:

  • Suspicion without evidence: Individuals develop baseless beliefs that others are trying to deceive, exploit, or harm them.
  • Doubts about loyalty: A persistent, unjustified concern over the trustworthiness of friends, associates, or group members.
  • Reluctance to confide: A deep fear that sharing personal information will be used against them.
