It was a lot more marginal before. Conspiracy belief is an opiate for anxiety or acute helpless dissatisfaction. A lot more such people around these days.

Don't all court cases start as a "conspiracy" till proven differently? Guess I'm trying to say everything starts as a theory till proven true.

I see your point, but all theories are not created equal. A prosecutor's theory of a crime must be carefully constructed to serve a prosecutor's purposes, that is, to account for all known facts and to point the way to looking for further evidence leading to either a prosecution or a dropped case. A conspiracy theory need have no great correspondence to facts, but must provide a satisfying/entertaining myth for the believer, and thus, with continued elaboration, continued loyalty and support from them for the creators.

A whole 'lotta conspiracy belief began when Donny got elected. Actually it got started when Obama was in office. I.E.: Pizzagate. The Repukes have only been too happy to tap into it.
