Aloha Jason,
Pronoia is unexpected. The idea is to set someone up for believing the USUAL, and treating them to a new Idea. Conspire usually has a negative connitation. In this case, the negative fear based thought is turned around by the punchline: that those conspiring have only your best interests at heart.
