I never said you are right or wrong. The topic would require discussion to explore and im not going to do that because i see no value in talking to you. You are just going to have to accept you lack value to me and move on, or change your behavior so as to be perceived as having a valued opinion.
I couldnt give even the smallest fuck if you thought you are wrong or not. For that you'd have to demonstrate your opinions hold value. Your behavior has been that of a toddler having a hissy fit cause he saw something that wasnt funny, not much i can respect of a persons opinion about that.
That said i do t recall ever claiming that a rapist or murderer should get off for their crimes, so no idea what nonsense your even talking about, and i dont care.

No doubt, the system has plenty of corruption. I just dont think its some small minority in control in secret. The control, corruption, and manipulation is largely in plain sight and more or less contributed to by the majority of the political sphere.

I think alot of it comes from the lack of critical thinking skills combined with the fact that the consipracy theories are usually easier to understand and play to their prejudices.
For example its easier to think there is some elite illuminti controlling the world and pitting people against eachother or fixing prices than to understand psychology or economics and how these sorts of patterns can arise naturally. It also plays against either anticommunist or anticapatilist views where its all some big plot to push one or the other. Its easier to blame some small group in power than to blame society as a whole, partly because atleast if its a single person or group in power doing it the. The solution is singular, get rid of them.

No need to be sorry. And yea its easy to teach when they are young, not so much the adults.

I find the majority are quite incapable of navigating truths or reasoning objectively at all. This will work with some, but its a small minority. Even those who are capable dont want the truth, they invested too much into the fantasy to back down now

B is certainly a factor... A not so much, but maybe some. The biggest factor though is poor education and lack of education. Schools and parents do a very poor job at teaching children critical thinking skills and that is really the biggest issue, thry lack the tools to evaluate the nonsense and understand the truth.

Its hard to predict the future largely because the pace of technology varies wildly depending on the state of society. If we had the same momentum we had in the 60s i would say it would be a sure thing. But things have slowed down and at present i expect more of a technological regression rather than progress
