A lot more people than I once thought seem have a very broken mental model of how things work. To take a recent hot-button topics, if you think that a virus can be caused by radio signals, or that an injectable vaccine can contain remote-controlled microchips, then you probably can be convinced of anything.
With such a fuzzy idea of what even makes physical sense, daily life must be a trip, because, a bit like Harry Potter, there are no rules for how things work so literally anything could happen. And if AirPods and wireless chargers do work and a website can write your paper instantly, under such a system why would Mars' ascendency not be able to make you more likely to get a promotion this week? Not that everyone into astrology is a 5G conspiracist, but that such a large percentage of people are that there must be a huge wider population of people completely at sea when it comes to how the universe works.
