It makes plenty sense. People talk like they know everything but can't seem to use all that knowledge to their advantage. What's the point? When shyt hits the fan you and the other conspiracy theorists will be dead like everyone else.
This is the very reason people like yourself don't have common sense nor know how the world works. It's not like "knowing everything in the world" cause in reality no one knows everything. There are things people are knowledge about. Some people focus on sport stats, others on history, another on medical shyt.
Sad part is that it works in many aspects of life. Some of the brightest and talented people(nurse, doctors, teachers, coaches) aren't Billionaires.
Some of the biggest conspiracy theorists sit on Capitol Hill making decisions for the rest of the world. Hopefully when shyt hits fan, people with common sense will survive a little longer bc they know what to look for.
