The concept of reptilian beings on Earth is a surprisingly widespread conspiracy theory, in which the US government and major public companies are complicit in a vast worldwide network of underground bases housing a large population of humanoid reptilian creatures called Reptoids. They speak English and are involved in every major government and corporate decision. They are variously said to either disguise themselves or actually shape-shift into humans, where they have public lives in positions of national importance. Some say the Reptoids are of extraterrestrial origin, and some say they are native to Earth, having developed intelligence before the primates, and have been secretly running things all along.

The real danger with the "reptoid" mythos is that critically impaired people refuse to acknowledge that humans are more than capable of orchestrating atrocities. Never underestimate human short-sightedness and greed.

The Mega-Conspiracy concept is great for insecure, anal retentive types who have to organize reality into one big, neat box. They can't accept that history can be accidental, events can occur by happenstance. And with the Mega-Con, the "indifference" of nature, its chaos, can be boxed in by such concepts as weather control.
And throw in evil as an external, not internal problem, and the insecure can find solace because none of it is their fault.
I think you hit on a new PC term in "critically impaired". I don't know whether it is simple stupidity, this inability to evaluate statements for their validity. Sometimes of course it's laziness; sometimes it's lack of education or intellectual rigor.

Laziness is a huge part of it. Too many people secretly deplore thinking.
On the other hand, it's been pretty conclusively established that George W. Bush is definitely a Reptilian. There are even pictures of him in an unguarded moment without the human mask. (Of course, its also been definitively established that George W. Bush is also a Simian -- But how can he belong to both alien species at the same time?)

Reptoids are a metaphor for the reptillian "territorial" brain. A reptoid is a person ruled by base emotions such as fear, hate, power-lust, etc.

As a metaphor, it works. As "reality," it fails miserably. Then again, our culture seems to have increasing intolerance for metaphors. Take biblical fundies, for instance.
