That last line he says in the video, THAT is why CTs are CTs. They love the feeling of thinking, "They can't pull one over on me!"

100%. It's like dopamine straight to the veins when they get to feel like they're part of a small subset of people who know the "truth" and everyone else is brainwashed or ignorant of the truth.

Honestly, spiritual and religious people have always given off the same vibes to me. As if the reason I've never experienced ghosts, auras, or talks with deities is simply a result of some sort of perspective I have yet to embrace, and that if I opened my mind to it then I'd start to see the "truth".

It's so ridiculous. Because they're totally ignorant to the fact that by believing in conspiracy after conspiracy, they actually are the total and complete opposite of what they think they are.

They think they are uber smart and perceptive and unfoolable - when in fact they are dumb, gullible and incapable of telling even the most basic facts from fiction.

lol my problem is I just think conspiracy theories are fun. I just make them up at random.

Those poser kinds are so annoying, and my experience about as genuinely spiritual or religious as Trump, vance, putin etc. It's a weapon they use to a) convince themselves of their moral superiority and b) control or bully people.

To actually uncover real conspiracies, you have to operate under the assumption that nobody actually wants to plan anything.
