There's also the issue that the internet can bring groups of people together and make larger groups that would not have existed before. There's good money to be made going around the world giving meme based talks in echo chambers even after one has been discredited.
You just keep on playing the victim to a gullible audience and make alliances with new audiences who require your conspiracy theory narrative to be true so they can add it to their latest one also.
None of these people will go to jail or lose pensions even when the truth comes out so quite frankly maybe they have nothing to lose.
They also have the skills they have acquired in years of deceit to market themselves to any new group that requires their Machiavellian mastery.
Its really quite ingenious all you have to do is conspire deliberately or eventually out of necessity to cover up deceit or default failings then go around pushing the, "there are people out there who are conspiracy theorists who are out to get us", conspiracy theory.
Its simple you turn the very nature of scientific discord activity, which is the whole purpose of scientific enquiry, into a bad thing buy referring to it as a "conspiracy theory".
Very clever to conspire whilst simultaneously creating a deity (we are scientists) that must be believed based on appeal to authority, your own authority, whilst discrediting the notion that anyone ever engages in conspiring by turning the conspiracy theorist term on its head to give it an automatically bad connotation.
Nothing new there, its been used since day dot.
