Gene found for Paranoia,Behaviour of conspiracy theorists
| A genetic disorder called Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) in humans is caused by defects involving chromosome 15. Some of the genes on the maternally inherited chromosome are turned off, so their counterparts on the father's chromosome need to be fully functional.
(See diagram.)
f they are not, a person develops PWS, which manifests as obesity, intellectual disability, and possibly mental illness.
| PWS patients with mental illness usually experience schizophrenia-like symptoms, such as hallucinations and paranoia.
Because they suspected that genes related to paranoia could be located in the Prader-Willi region of chromosome 15, a team of Canadian scientists investigated further. The researchers asked 831 undergraduate students to complete questionnaires aimed at assessing traits associated with schizophrenia and autism.
| The team found that students who exhibited signs of paranoid thinking (specifically, ideas of reference, which is the tendency to interpret random coincidences as highly meaningful or to believe that other people are talking about or plotting against them) had a particular genetic profile
At rs850807, they contained a "C" nucleotide on both the father's and mother's chromosomes. Those with a "T" on either or both chromosomes were less likely to exhibit paranoid thinking*.
| The fact that a tiny genetic region can have such a profound impact on our thinking patterns is quite remarkable.

| They should call this gene Hououin Kyouma
| They are just trying to silence us by modifying our superior genes before we can use them!
| Does this mean there are no conspiracies at all?
| >>126036 it means only we, the chosen ones, can see through the ruse made by secret world government as our cells were modified by the freedom warriors of old as a countermeasure to suggestive imagery that does soft brainwashing

I think there is no „secret world government“. But there is a global hegemony of an economic ideology, which divides people by it's nature into a few rich and poor masses. And the rich dividing the poor masses by infecting them with religious and racist ideologies.
I also believe that individual behaviour is not determined by their genetics that much.

If this goes too far I'll have to use the power sealed in my right arm

Have you ever met a retarded person in that bubble you are living in?

Actually, most retards have a mess of genetic problems, not just one or two genes activated or deactivated.

| Humans and other animals possess two copies of most genes. This stems from the fact that animals contain pairs of chromosomes, one from the mother and one from the father.
Even though we contain two copies of nearly every gene, that does not mean that our bodies actually use both copies. A handful of genes, about 1% in mammals, are either turned "on" or "off" based on whether they came from the mother or the father.
