The atomization of man

Yesterday, while walking around the streets, this homeless guy came up to me and started ranting about all these conspiracy theories and just crazy things in general. I feel as though these people when atomized become so weak that they feel like the whole world is against them. Maybe when man becomes atomized, without community, friends, and family, it is inevitable that you will wind up subscribing to conspiracy theories, or even Christian fundamentalist views that the world is ending, and that the current events happening throughout the world are signs of the end times. I think of these protestant preachers on the street that constantly tell people that they must repent or they will burn in hell forever, and how terrible of a way to preach this becomes.
