The big problem with the conspiracy nutters who get sucked into this nonsense, is that you can't reason with them.
They are worse than the worst religious nutters - indeed their obsessive beliefs are proselytised repeatedly to anyone who will listen - and everyone who won't. Trying to offer an alternative view will be met with a self-superior smirk, and the fall-back retort - "That's what they want you to think...".
When the "planned earthquake" and half-million deaths don't eventuate, they will simply claim that their exposing of the plot foiled it, and move onto the next conspiracy quackery.
