- godelski 3y agoOf course, see my reference to Watergate and Contra Affairs. Would you not say those are real bona fide conspiracies of the original kind? The litmus test is not about convergence, it is "wizards did it." Convergence is just a common kind of thing that crackpot conspiracies develop around. It's more rational when you understand convergence because crackpot conspiracy often is re-framed as a misinterpretation of the data. Qualifiers are also important.
