The thing that is weird to me about conspiracy theorists is that they all seem to be reductionists. As in, they believe that in order for these strange highly complex phenomena to exist, that there must be powerful people in place at every nexus of the system, with their thumbs on switches and valves to ensure that things work exactly that way. When in reality, complex systems can work under their own power even while the people in that system can be few and unaware.
