21 May 2013 - conspiracy theorists

Once again it’s time to think like a conspiracy theorist—but be careful not to turn into one. Why aren’t the great conspiracies generally known? Well duh, they’re secret. But then how do conspiracy theorists find out about them? They’ll say they figured it out with genius insight but if so then how’d they get stupid? Either they’re dupes of the conspiracy (you’d deny it too) or they’re in on it and playing a role.
