Scholarly works? On why conspiracy theorists have all kinds of mental deficits? Don't make me laugh. Nobody who knows the first thing about basic psychology falls for this bs. Needless to say, most people do not and will happily embrace anything which supports their stance, no matter how nonsensical. It confirms their existing worldview, you see. Which is very important when you are insecure about basically everything.
Everyone wants to think they're the "JFK conspiracy theorists", while shouting ridiculous theories about chemtrails and secret cabal of pedophile cannibal politicians. Thing is, YouTube videos aren't anymore of a valid source of empirical evidence or research than Fox News. And the people who believe the former tend to watch the latter just as much. Even though TV news is as "mainstream media" as you can get.
So why should I take those people seriously? Making up your own mind means being able to say "Well, guess what, I think DIFFERENTLY. Why should I believe what YOU have to say?" The problem and irony of calling other people "sheep" is that YOU DON'T have a monopoly on the "truth" They might not believe the official story, but that doesn't mean they have to believe YOUR version either.
Funny you should say that, haven't you noticed that that man is on your news outlets now? The ones you are referring to are the ones who are not believing that man.
What, as opposed to all the conspiracy theories that other people ALSO made up? The difference is, I'm not claiming my opinion as "TRUTH". That's why I started with "my personal take". You're free to disagree, but don't think that makes your opinion anymore valid. There is no one agreed upon definition of "conspiracy theory".
What some people consider as a conspiracy, others see it as the truth. And to even more others, they're skeptical of both because everyone is talking out of their ass. The difference between the skeptic and conspiracy theorist is that the former makes up their own mind and doesn't follow a herd. Group think is rarely the domain of "healthy skepticism".
What they don't realize is many of those those "conspiracy theories" are quite literally conspiracy theories to discredit actual conspiracies.
And even the word "conspiracy theory" is kind of a conspiracy theory since the meaning of it was shifted a while back (post-JFK iirc) in order to discredit those theories.
Given that I couldn't trace the orders back to anyone I'd assume it was another UK suggestion, similar to the 5 approved pop song compositions.
Some have actual mental illness and paranoia.
Some are just sad, lonely people who feel like they have no purpose in life. Belief in conspiracy theories lets them feel special, like they're in on some secret that everyone else is ignorant to.
Technically most of the last category simply invents a fake conspiracy and then laughs at people who believe in it. Typically due to mental illness.
So that's actually just 3 views of the same class of person.
Generally speaking such people prefer fantasy as it gives them the appearance of control over others, and how deep they retreat into their fantasy (ie "this is harmless fun even if people die from it") depends on how much pushback they get in reality.
