Why do people believe in conspiracy
theories? I personally believe in conspiracy theories; not because it changes
the way the event actually happened, but because it puts people in the set of
mind of the “what if”.
On June 6, 2018, David Ludden posted an
article called, “Why Do People Believe In Conspiracy Theories?”, this article
talks about how people like conspiracy theories and why. I chose this article
to find out why we believe in conspiracy theories because I personally believe
in them. In the article it talked about “the desire for understanding and
certainty”, I found this part interesting because what it says is true.
Ludden asks a question and makes us
wonder “why is that?”; he really goes into detail on why people might believe
in the C.T. , the researchers have found that reasons for believing is because
od desire; “the desire of understanding and certainty” “the desire for control
and security” “the desire to maintain a positive self-image”.
By looking at this article we can
determine that this is an informative article. The article is letting us know
why people believe in conspiracy theories and why they have a reason to believe
in them and plus Ludden is not telling us directly to believe in them.
I have never been interested in learning about Conspiracy Theories but this seems very interesting.
