This is the equivalent of "I'm just saying" > The trend toward dismissing anything one disagrees with as a "conspiracy theory" is going to rob the term of any meaning. No, I'm not dismissing anything I disagree with. I'm dismissing the idea that activision ban cheaters from their single player games to encourage cheaters to repurchase as a conspiracy theory.
