My personal take on the whole conspiracy theory thing is that there is so much bad and unexplainable stuff in the world that people find it strangely comforting to believe that there is some form of controlling cabal or grand plan at work here, because the alternative (that the world is run by a bunch of fuckwits who are making it up as they go along and there is no rhyme or reason to any of it) is too horrible to contemplate.One mans truth is another mans conspiracy theory, apart from the flat earth and 5G Covid nutters there's scope for all types of unbelievable shit.
We have got people on this planet who still believe in prophets gods and fairies, any other belief system no matter how bizarre [ales in comparison.
Unfortunately, having been in the room (in a very junior capacity I should add) when a couple of fairly major corporate and military decisions have been made by very senior people, it is my observation that it is just a bunch of fuckwits making it up as they go along, sad to say.
