This isn't exclusive to older people, either. Regardless, it will be even more dangerous when these people reproduce and raise their children to believe this stuff.

Anecdotally I know several Gen Z-ers in their early 20s that are college educated and half believe in these conspiracy theories.

May be more of a psychographic than demographic reason.

Many of my high-school friends (I'm a millennial) are definitely being sucked into this.

I would hesitate to say this. There have been emergences of qanon adjacent conspiracies popping up out of tiktok, the Wayfair one being the most obvious example.
