Conspiracies are part of that turning your brain off, as they supply in a nice simple explanation for what is actually a complex situation caused by many different factors and actors. For each concrete gripe you've described, we can see that the dynamic exists. We can imagine ways of trying to reform it or at least reign it in (this isn't to say that doing so is easy, due to entrenched interests). And if someone else disagrees with you on some of those issues, perhaps you can still find common ground with them on others. What do you get from tying it all together, labeling the whole thing "Great Replacement", and imparting some singular motivation ? It would seem that you gain a group identity and a rallying cry, but at the cost of misdirecting your energy onto easy targets instead of the root issues you started with.
