Reminds me of those people who break up with somebody and even when they are in a new relationship can't stop talking about their ex.

Confirmation bias, incredulity, limited ability to generalize or abstract, mental laziness, tribalism, and a fucking lying media all contribute to the mess. The system is so corrupt that people think it has to be a conspiracy theory and can't be real is also a contributing factor. The idealized America people are sold in school is so far away from the reality of a nearly third world level corruption that it seems impossible.
There's not conspiracy theory around every corner? "Big Pharma", "Wall Street", "Main Stream Media", "The Establishment", "The 1%", "Dominionists", Greedy Baby Boomers, "Neo Conservatives"," Neo Liberals", "Third Way Democrats", and corrupt and greedy oil companies, insurance companies, utilities, discount retailers, fast food franchises, and let's not forget that good old place holder - "The System".
The only things that the progressive paranoia around here lacks to go full on Alex Jones or Glenn Beck are The Bilderberg meetings, The illuminati, and FEMA camps. You've got Jill Stein talking about vaccines, cell phones causing brain damage, and fluoride being put by chemical companies into toothpaste to save on dumping charges so those are covered.
Hillary Clinton’s newest book, “Stronger Together,” which provides a policy blueprint for where she hopes to take the country if she is elected president, sold just 2,912 copies in its first week on sale, according to Nielsen BookScan.
Both Mrs. Clinton and her running mate, Senator Tim Kaine, have promoted the book on the campaign trail, but the sales figure, which tallies about 80 percent of booksellers nationwide and does not include e-books, firmly makes the book what the publishing industry would consider a flop.
