Rule 51

An internet rule which states: For every act of nature or man there will be someone within a short period of time that will attribute that act to a conspiracy theory.

Terrorists kill someone? False Flag! Clouds look weird? Conspiracy to poison us all! Another school shooting? Never happened! Just a conspiracy to take our guns! Government says it is a weather balloon? Alien cover-up!

Corollary: If you can think of it, there's a conspiracy theory about it somewhere online.
