Came across this and thought it was pretty interesting and detailed look into why people believe conspiracy theories. I'm sure there will be disagreement, and personally will admit into knowing little of the validity of it, but still it is food for thought at the very least.

I think he doesn't give enough credit to the amount of conspiracy theories that turn out to be real. Its the precedence set that makes new ones so easy to get going. Then our shitty ass politicians prove there really is nothing we can think up that their corrupt asses would or haven't already done.

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you.
Just because something sounds crazy doesn't make it untrue.
And as previously said on this thread, never underestimate a politician's greed or ambition.
If a few turn out to be true, it makes others easier to believe. Personally, I tend to be skeptical until hard evidence comes out. According to the OP, that means I am confident of myself and my place in the world. Probably true.
