Except cookie-cutter conservatives do not connect dots: No number of “mere” coincidences ever rises to a level sufficient to cause alarm. Every event is taken as a discrete out-of-greater-context one.

They like to cite (abuse) Ockham’s Razor - but Ockham’s Razor says to take into account all known facts before choosing the simplest explanation as the most likely one - not merely choosing the simplest one.
