    meanwhile the Q crowd refuses to believe the simple truth is true, preferring to think it’s all a setup

      This is the beauty of being a conspiracy theorist, it gives you free reign to believe anything you want.

      Evidence comes out that someone you support has done something bad? “It’s a set up and/or manufactured! Where’s the proof!?” Same evidence comes out that someone you oppose has done something bad? “See! I told you so. When will people start listening to me!?! Of course it’s real because I think they are running defense for this person.” No evidence evidence exists for your theory? “((They)) are very good at hiding it!” Evidence that kind-of-sort-of-almost-supports-your-claim-if-you-look-at-it-at-just-the-right-angle-in-just-the-right-light (but not really, it just is vaguely similar) supports something you said earlier. “HA! i told you.”

      You can always view/ignore the facts in such a way to confirm your position, if the facts are secondary to the narrative.
