That sounds like a great plot line for a story, but why is the more simple answer wrong?

Moreover, why would anyone actively and maliciously need to espouse those viewpoints when there are perfectly explainable reasons for those viewpoints to circulate naturally?

I know there are many influencers are associated with certain powerful and funded groups, but the majority of people parroting these viewpoints are not related.

I never said the more simple answer is wrong, im explaining why it doesnt need to be a conspiracy.

You are also assuming "actively and maliciously," thats not necesarily the case. Of course the best lie has a grain of truth.

The majority of people need to get their words to parrot from somewhere. This is where the powerful and funded groups come in, money gives your message more reach.
