I was a fan in my teen years in the 1970s. I was into the heels. Stan Stasiac and the devastating heart punch, lol. Lumberjack Larry Hennig whose parents demanded he drag home a dead American Indian every morning before they would give him his breakfast.
Yeah, the wrestling thing is a good demonstration of how vulnerable the human mind is to manipulation. I was an atheist at this point. But I believed wrestling was real and ancient aliens had visited Earth.
As the guy who got turned into a newt said in the the Monty Python and the Holy Grail - I got better.
Make no mistake though: We are all vulnerable to be manipulated into being stupid. Our brains are hard-wired to favor emotion over logic. It is an uphill battle for us all.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
