What Makes Conspiracy Theories Popular?
#27
RE: What Makes Conspiracy Theories Popular?
Lack of control in one's own life, I think, plays a role, on top of everthing mentioned above. It definitely helps to be paranoid. But I don't think this is the case for everyone, seeing how pervasive some of these looney tune ideas are. For some reason, we've all read into them at some point in our lives, and I think that comes down to availability. And its not just the internet; conspiracy theories sell a bit better than science (not that they are a dichotomy, but the nuts seem to think so.), so we have shows like Ancient Aliens and that Brad dude's Decoded.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
