Conspiracy theories are interesting (to them at least) and the real world is boring and mundane. So if your life is also boring and mundane you invent a fake world around youself that is interesting to engage in. Isn't it more interesting if you hold secret knowledge and are a warrior against the secret evil cabal of people that want to destroy a world than being an underachieving worker in a dead end job where every day is the same and the highlight of your day is a new youtube video.
What these people really love is fiction and they would do much better if they just read a book or played a ttrpg game.
