I think you need to reassess these people you respect a lot. Belief in 9-11 conspiracy theories is not common.
The Venn Diagram overlap between anti-vaxxers, 9-11 ‘truthers’, and flat earthers is nearly a circle

I think the weaponization of ignorance is a more nuanced subject than a binary choice.
There is no merit in pushing significantly disproven ‘theories’ like flat earthism.

Funny you mention that, there is a Flat Earth society that was started as a joke with members just arguing for fun.
They were mostly all replaced by true believers by the late 90s, I got to watch it happen.
And it plays out the same way in so many ‘ironic stupidity’ forums.

This is a flaw in human nature that needs to be resolved before we move forward as a species.
It is no longer a survival benefit to follow loud, angry people.
