When I look around, I observe that the vast majority of conspiracy theorists are crusaders engaged in fights with clouds of smoke. They condemn all who are not fighting the same smoke clouds. And they are exceedingly proud of themselves, as it is clear that they're giving that smoke a helluva beating.
The real powers need only stand outside the smoke, outside the range of the wild swinging.
Yep. I agree. They usually have a series of purity tests, and may be on board with most of what they believe, but it takes just one thing that someone else they know, who may have sort of a conventional mindset about a topic, and they get dismissed by the other theorist.
This mindset is nurtured by those who distrust organizing to great effect.
