These are people that say man made climate change is a myth because we are too small to do that but controlling the weather to make hurricanes stronger is totally happening right now.
Because there's no "conspiracy" that "they don't want you to know about" regarding climate change. Climate change has publicly accessible information that goes back decades. That's boring and doesn't give people a sense of importance.
But HAARP and other "true causes" of hurricanes hitting people who never get hit by hurricanes are surreptitious and give these nutters a sense of moral superiority. They feel important because "they know more than you".
Here's a great podcast episode about the very ideology (with transcript): https://www.apa.org/news/podcasts/speaking-of-psychology/conspiracy-theories
