The most unbelievable part of right wing conspiracy theories is the idea of "crisis actors". They believe that the deep state is organizing mass murder events to further their fascist/communist goals, but dont believe the deep state would actually kill Americans. They're ironically naive about how evil the ruling class is
A lage appeal of conspiracy theories is the unspoken assumption that there are people who are in control and have a plan. Even if that's in service of a nefarious goal, it's more comforting than the idea that nobody's at the wheel.
What's more organized and meticulously planned than just gunning down civilians for a false flag attack? Crisis actors! It also doesn't help that Q-heads' conception of 'evil' begins and ends with cartoon show bad guys.
When the news broke that Biden and his team wasn't getting national security info from the Trump administration - the talking heads (including ex-directors of the CIA) on MSNBC kept shrilly mentioning threats from foreign actors who might "take advantage" of "our weakness".
I thought that was really funny. Surely 95+% of the time since inauguration day Trump hasn't been paying attention at all to national security stuff and there's been nobody at the wheel.
I think one of the reasons people like Van Jones kept saying "Today, Trump became presidential," is that libs needed to pretend that - at least some of the time - Trump wasn't a ridiculous reality tv moron grifter clown. A president who is a ridiculous reality tv moron grifter clown isn't part and cannot be part of their of their West Wing view of reality. It's an impossibility.
There is a heartwarming hallmark film about how the theater club son of a hotdog necked cia agent figured out how he can finally earn his fathers respect and serve his country at the same time in there.
Shit, I can almost feel this getting made unironically.

Libs are like that too.

The real villans were theater kids all along they say.
Woulda been a lot cheaper to hire a gunman but the theatre kids wanted to feel included
