I used to be a conspiracy theorist, way back in the day. Here's what cured me:
If there is such a national and/or international conspiracy, devised by the wealthiest, most powerful people, kept secret from the rest of the world, then how did my dumb a-- find out about it?
And even assuming, for the moment, all of it's true, then what is a know-nothing bozo like me going to do about it? Further, given the widespread use of conspiracy theories on the internet, then wouldn't the conspirators have discovered that you know their secret plans? Wouldn't they then move against you, to stop spreading their world-altering schemes on Facebook?
If I did happen to stumble across such a conspiracy, I'd keep my mouth shut. But no! They're blabbing it everywhere.

@colinl5951 "I'm proud to be a deplorable."
The only way to be proud about being deplorable is when you've done away with all the other more logical reactions to your own failure: such as thoughts and feelings of shame, regret, the resolve to not be conned again; and the desire to once again genuinely experience the love of country, religion (or lack thereof), morality.
Or, of course, the only other way is to convince yourself that you still have all those things, that you aren't actually deplorable. But either way you'd have to break your brain, twisting it around the inconsistencies, fallacies, and MAGA's inhumanity to man--making it so you're insane, and taking the reverse of everything to be true:
Up is down; black is white; evil is good; and sweet is bitter. But the Dunning-Kruger effect makes it so you can't see those things, well, that and your pretzel brain. Same thing, really.
