Conspiracy

The reason people are behaving towards me the way they are.
Hym "It's conspiracy. That is all. You're not doing what you think you're doing. All you're doing is getting some random kid killed. That is a all. What ever agreement you have. Whatever threat you are under. Someone else will pay the price for you doing this to me."

Conspiracy Theory

A belief that the government and the media should never be trusted.
You think it’s silly to be a conspiracy theorist? Well I think it’s silly that you trust the media and the government. That’s why I believe a conspiracy theory can be true.

conspiracy theory

A theory that some fact or information is being hidden from the general public—a conspiracy—for whatever reason. These views are generally not held by most people or media (which is often part of the point—if something *is* being hidden, most people wouldn’t know).

Possibly the most well-known and widespread conspiracy theory is that planet Earth is actually flat, not spherical, and that this fact is covered up, keeping people in the dark.

A conspiracy theory may be true, false, or only partially true. “Conspiracy theory” is often used as a pejorative, usually an attempt to discredit ideas that are disagreed with; however, although theories like the Earth being flat can be patently disproven, many are still controversial.

In the United States, many conspiracy theories are attributed to the federal government. For example:
• some people purport that the attacks on September 11, 2001 (9/11) were perpetrated by the government as an excuse to increase citizen surveillance, or justify invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan.
• the demonstrations at the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021 were allegedly helped along by the government in an effort to discredit Donald Trump and his supporters.
• the existence of aliens and UFOs is supposedly hidden by the government, and equipment and specimens from said aliens is being stored in the top-secret Air Force facility Area 51.
“The CIA psychologically tortured human subjects to develop drugs that could psychomanipulate people during interrogations!”
“Oh yeah, that did happen, actually.”
“Sorry, what?”
“MKUltra. The CIA experimented on humans to make drugs.”
“…oh. Huh. Like, I was just trying to make up a weird conspiracy theory for Urban Dictionary, but… wow. I think my day is ruined now.”

Conspiracy theory

What about Fat-Cock Self-Preservation Theory, Cody? What do you think of that one? The most profound and accurate conspiracy theory on the web!
Hym "How's this for a conspiracy theory: The accusations of liar and grifter do nothing to hurt right-wing pundits EXPLICITLY BECAUSE they aren't intended to hurt them but, rather, deflate the value of liar and grifter accusations in a deliberate attempt to cover for ineffective political opposition. Because sure you're calling them a liar and a grifter but if you can keep them in the forefront of people's minds you can keep out the MORE EFFECTIVE opposition out of the lime light and maintain the status quo. So, denigrating the political opposition ISN'T TO GET YOU TO STOP LISTENING TO JORDAN PETERSON... It to get you to focus on Jordan Peterson instead of me. Because he is harmless and ineffective and I am not."

Conspiracy Theory Card

A rhetorical gambit used to instantly dismiss an argument, line of questioning, or piece of evidence by labeling it a "conspiracy theory," regardless of its factual basis or the reasonableness of the inquiry. This card is played to associate the speaker with the most irrational and lurid examples of conspiracy thinking (like flat Earth or lizard people), thereby poisoning the well, shutting down debate, and protecting the accused institution or narrative from scrutiny. It's a thought-terminating cliché.
Example: A journalist asks a pharmaceutical executive about undisclosed clinical trial data. The executive smiles and says to the room, "I see we have a conspiracy theorist in our midst." Playing the Conspiracy Theory Card reframes legitimate investigative journalism as paranoid fantasy, allowing the executive to avoid the question and discredit the journalist without addressing the substance.
