Even with song like ‘You Know You’re Right’ and ‘I Hate Myself and Want to Die’ some people couldn’t accept the fact Kurt Cobain committed suicide due to drug abuse and untreated depression. It was easier for their flawed heads to latch onto a conspiracy theory, complete with misogyny (his evil wife was trying to get his money!), than it was to grasp the truth.

Certain portions of the population will always latch onto a conspiracy, whether it’s a celebrity death to political innuendo meant to discredit The Enemy. To see it getting popularized on the internet should come as no surprise. It’s an effective tool for mainstreaming, which is why it’s more important than ever to be vigilant against it.
