"Why? It is caused by the government’s ceaseless and insatiable desire to horde secrets and label as deplorable conspiracy nuts all those who refuse to swallow their pablum. If you straight away swallow all the lies the government feeds you, you are one of their beloved sheeple. I do not see a great harm in being a skeptical citizen."

It's not a matter of choosing a side to believe in. It's a matter of evidence and rational thought. Buying in to nutty conspiracy theories is not being a skeptical citizen. Just the opposite. It's refusing to apply skepticism to the nutty claims.
