It’s not a conspiracy theory. Governments around the world spend money, effort and time to distract people from real issues. One of the easiest ways is to show them “those extremely bad people out there” and start or incite clashes and wars. When there’s another enemy that’s created to be worse for our social values or morals, it’s easy to unite people against that and keep them busy with something else.
- cubefox 2y agoI disagree, it's a conspiracy. There is evidence from the past where the Pakistani government tried to fight Islamic radicalism, but the mob was stronger and even threatened to kill government officials. (I have another conspiracy theory: People who try to blame it on the government try to do so because they want to make the people, or Islam, seem less bad.)
