Agreeing with you here... sometimes it's just impossible to discuss with people who sense falsehood at every corner of their life and don't trust anything that comes from "mainstream media".

Of course there's a lot going wrong these days but personally I do think that most of the people in most of the industry are really doing their job the best they can.

For me that means not every doctor wants to kill me, not every politician wants to see the world burn (What would be their gain? Being a leader of millions of people seems much more powerful to me than just being one of a few). Sure. A lot of them are dishonest when it comes to certain topics... but isn't everyone a little dishonest at some time of his life?

Most of those people just feel a little left out I guess. Being disappointed by a higher authority some time in their life and maybe getting into a downwards spiral a lot of them start to feel appreciated again in communuties that spread conspiracy theories. It's always easy to blame other people for a failure and incredibly hard to admit that you yourself might have been doing something wrong.
