The process is a lot like looking at a random field of dots and drawing lines between dots you randomly select in that field until you get a picture. Then you have "connected the dots" for your conspiracy. You can connect whatever dots you like to form the picture you end up running with.
I've watched the process going on up close as were, with conspiracy theories that were more personal to the person doing it than the political ones, but it's the same process.

I'm aware, observations on the subjects are better done far, far away lol
