I think some can't help it. They have mental health problems and paranoia is one of the symptoms and are delusional too but no matter what it's called they are mentally unbalanced.
No-one is paranoid and until you get stalked don't criticise those who have been. There is nothing worse than an adult stalking other's accounts because they are either jealous or just plain mean/nasty.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
