Just knowing a lot about a culture doesn't make you a member or follower of it. Don't be so dense.
Oh I never said I believed it (notice how I said his view was sensible), I'm talking about the thought process of the people who do believe those silly conspiracies. To them, what you describe justifies their foolishness (to themselves) as much as Trump's ties with Russia justifies an undoubting love of anything that makes him look bad. This is why I feel both camps are so similar and are acting very ironically.
