I'd love for the people that down voted this to explain why they did so.
The title is click bait-y as hell and appears on the surface to be a conspiracy weirdo video rather than the exact opposite.
The title is a tongue in cheek play on the conspiracy mindedness of the people it's meant to target and educate. It's a shame if actual skeptics are downvoting it based on that alone.
It's a shame they used that shitty ass title
woosh
