They see themselves as whistle-blowers, when they are really crying wolf!
They are crying wolf because they see one, and are trying to alert others.
Whether or not there is one is sometimes a matter of what you want to believe as much as anything else.

At the end of the day, the "conspiracy nutters" to coin your phrase, might just have a different view of things, and rather than be lumped into one pot, perhaps if you took the time to understand them, they might have a point. A broken clock is still right twice a day.
I know one anti vaxer family that needs to believe that rhetoric because they say that not everyone responds the same way, and they are generally correct with this statement.
The fact that they use this to explain their son's autism disorder is another tenuous link, but not one completely without foundation, and belittling their perspective serves only to cast judgement on them, and not understand them.
Ultimately, we get lied to a lot by governments. THEY are the ones that deserve to be questioned, and we should never shout down someone questioning the official line, because they are the ones that might have been the ones to call out the holocaust, but too many people might have told them that they were crazy, and there is no way that the mass extermination of people could be occurring in their own backyard.
