It’s as if all these conspiracies are manufactured as part of a propaganda campaign and not organically emerged…

Also notice how people online who go out of their way to “own the libs” and who also say they don’t care about politics (or are neutral) never go after conservatives, even though they’re often much funnier to ‘own’.

That’s how it starts. And then before you know it you’re reading YouTube comments.

My pet belief: It’s because conspiracy theories (the modern parlance) are for unexplained things. Everyone knows that cabals of corporate cat-crushing cunts exist and are evil exemplified, but the truly crazies (who will be the visible and audible ones ranting about a conspiracy) aren’t going to latch on to stuff that’s easily explained by facts. They want to be the masterful mind who metes wisdom to the misled masses, and that takes leaping ahead of evidence (which is a good thing in science when you base it on evidence, and simply posit something that can be tested with the goal of discovering whether it’s true or not, rather than just wholeheartedly believing in your conspiracy theory and refusing to consider evidence against it).
