oh yeah, and obviously you can't diagnose somebody based on one interview that may not read well. But there is a huge distinction between widely popular conspiracy theories and the "the government is engaging in a cover up" mentality vs. the belief that "the government is singling me out personally and tapping my phones." The first belief is very common; the second is not and is highly correlated with schizophrenia and other mental disorders.
