These people share conspiracy theories to promote conflict, cause chaos, recruit and radicalize potential followers, make money, harass, or even just to get attention.
The ones that get famous almost certainly don’t (e.g. Alex Jones, Roger Stone, Mike Flynn, Tucker Carlson, Trump, Vance, etc.). Few are the true believers at the top.
The true believers are just a bunch of useful idiots, because they’re easily manipulated and lured by the promise of being the special little smarties with little to no effort.
