People believe in conspiracy theories because they want to make sense of things that seem confusing or unfair. Imagine you’re playing a game, and the rules change without warning, it feels like someone is hiding something from you. That’s how people feel when they hear about big secrets being kept by powerful groups.
Examples
- A child thinks their teacher is hiding magical answers from the class.
- A person believes the government is hiding aliens from everyone.
- A group of friends thinks the school principal has a secret robot helper.
