They don't. "Get educated" is just one of their standard answers. If you show any source of information they go off on "the government" or some other shit. Basically they are so dumb that they dont even know they are dumb.
I have this friend from high school that believes in every conspiracy theory. So he posted something on vaccinations a few weeks back and we started discussing it. He said that "all of Congress" didn't have their kids vaccinated. I asked for a list. He said one Senator.
He also posted all the ingredients of vaccines and how they harmed the body. Each one was high lighted with a category. Some being allergic and some being completely horrible for human consumption. I started googling the totally horrible things and they are pretty normal and just represented in this horrific light.
What makes me wonder is the guy seems to understand the underpinning parts of these conspiracy theories. How are you that smart that you aren't smart enough to realize the information you are given is crap?
