"Skepticism" is also often based in ego; when people feel weak (which often happens when they aren't doing well in life, often, in this case, partially due to less general education), they latch on to conspiracies and things that aren't held by the mainstream just to feel superior to the masses who are doing otherwise better. It's kind of akin to gatekeeping. Gatekeepers of things normally never know the real depths of what they are gatekeeping (or they wouldn't do it), but do it only to feel elitist about things. People that go for every easily disproved conspiracy in the books are partaking in a cousin to that mentality, but don't actively *realize* why they are doing what they do.
