Australians seem to have a thing for conspiracy theories too.
Yes, though you have to remember, in most other places, the government cracks down on conspiracy theories. For example, if you live in China and believe that certain groups are secretly being mistreated, you're going to have the authorities on your tail.
Nah. There are just a lot of them, and most of them have access to the Internet.
Nope, but it's not that Americans falling for conspiracies is over blown, just that there are a lot of idiots everywhere.
Yes. The lizard people engineered us that way.
