Have you ever seen the movie Enemy of the State? Gene Hackman plays a former, NSA tech, who now uses his skills 'off the grid'. At one point, Hackman say he knows about conspiracy theories, he was a former conspirator. Heh.

"Have you ever seen the movie Enemy of the State?"

Yes, good flick.

And I agree with you that any conspiracy needs to be proven to be taken seriously.

But anyone who has worked in government to get anything done, needs to understand that when you're the one doing it, you don't call it "a conspiracy", you call it "a coalition" or "a consensus" or something else seemingly innocuous. Only others are guilty of conspiracies, never you!
