I'm not suggesting a sinister cabal, I'm suggesting there is a literal conspiracy, a group coordinating in secret. And that group is the government. And the secret would be that highly classified information. In my mind we are seeing things the same, but I can see how the words I put to it might give a different impression. I really don't like the current "conspiracy theory" understanding in modern usage. It completely screws over the literal usage of those two words together. If you wish to, please reread my comment without the common connotation of "conspiracy theory" and see if we then agree.
