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.

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.
@posrev

Would you agree the biggest reasons why people latch onto B$ are a) we live in a fantasy consumed world and b) lack of trust in leaders. The symptoms can be irritating and can be treated with things like censorship but these things will only help us ignore the root causes to go unchecked.

I believe the lack of trust is well founded. Forget the crazy bat shit and try to deal with the more legitimate ones.

Like weapons of mass destruction in iraq, lies of the leaders and perpetuated my media. This great window in time showing us how much power controls information in our media system. This particular lie lead us to kill and displace an entire society and our children to grow up with mis trust while feeding them hundreds of millions of dollars of lord of the things, if we didnt let yesterdays children grow up with that maybe they wouldn't be so confused. The root cause really is lack of integrity in our leaders, attacking the poor fools will not help anything but our own egos.

The fact the CIA and NSA exists the way it does in the light of whistle blowers undeniable evidence which the MSM ignores getting into details about is eye opening and scary, this is a root cause and the people who have no foundation of trust and reality get attacked by those that are apathetic to the above and prefer to punch down to annoying symptoms.

This is the stark reality.

I think one of the funnier parts of the Lords of the Rings is that when they tear down Isengard Saruman has stockpiles of the highest quality pipe weed.

Gandalf and the hobbits are supposed to represent common folk who enjoyed the simple things in life.

Saruman was Tolkien's snobbish peers at the University who looked down on commoners while secretly wanting to enjoy simple pleasures too. But always keeping it hidden and lying about it.

This should loosen anyones asshole into a storm drain.

If you join a farming commune and live off the land, everyone owns the means of food production and land, is that communism?

Every time I get drunk I start using racial slurs. Just yesterday I was talking about how all the Athrican people were really kind and how Meshicans were hard workers.

@NEETzsche

In that we agree I am complete fed-up with the one-sided extremism of the left. Where we might disagree is that I also am equally fed-up with the exact same behavior from the right.
