2. What is it about stupid people
That makes them believe the worst possible explanations.

And when there is no explanation, they make up one that is worse than any reality.

I just don't get it.

4. I used to think it was a type of religion,
but now I'm thinking it's more of a fetish.

Take a well debunked conspiracy- like the Trade Centers were nuked - and watch what happens every time it's reposted in the Dungeon.
You would expect a normal person to explain that it was nonsense and/or possibly post links to the previous debunkings, right?

But what do they do?
