Fair point - I’m talking about COVID specific conspiracy theories - 5G, Digital Currency, micro chips, depopulation, fake virus etc.How liberal do we want to be with the concept of conspiracy theoris. Technically George Bush blew Iraq to smithereens based on a unproven conspiracy theory that they had chemical weapons that they wanted to use on civilians so there is that.nThen we have Myanmar. I don’t have any proof that China has infiltrated the military to help organise the coup but sometimes a answer can be so obvious it doesn’t need a detailed analysis. If the door has red hand prints on it and you have red paint on your hands I’m not gonna DNA test the door
Ultimately I’m not sure conspiracy theories are needed nowadays beyond The govt level . Society is too dumb and too easily manipulated to require some grand plan as far as big business . If you tell them to buy something they will so why would one need to make any effort
And the ubiquitous THEY who are doing all this, is never answered by the Conspiracists.
