I think the difference here is that those you are referencing are cases where enough evidence was provided that it was convincing after the fact.
So yes, conspiracies do exist; however, which of those did you suspect or predict beforehand? The theorist is often an early critic before there is enough evidence to be strongly convincing to the majority of people.
- mamon 8y agoEvidence only exists if conspirators are sloppy. Intelligence agencies are usually excellent in covering their tracks, so for example many conspiracies from WW II only become known after MI6 declassified their documents after 50 years grace period. Who knows what historians will be able to prove about our times in 50 years time ?
- igor47 8y agoIs this an argument for believing conspiracy theories on no evidence today? What's the point? There's plenty of real stuff you can legitimately believe and be concerned about today, based on evidence. If you go around spreading unjustified theories, you're signaling your own superiority and awesomeness and insightfulness, at the cost of undermining our collective faith in institutions. If you do this -- congratulations. You're a self-centered egoist. Well-done, and I hope you get lots of nice pats on the head for your unconventional thinking.
