conspiracies

know of any real ones ;) :D

The funny thing is that most events which attract 'conspiracy theories' are conspiracies anyway, just not in the sense of the word that conspiracy theorists like to use.

does promoting hoax conspiracies hide and divert attention from real conspiracies?

care to elaborate?

Regardless of who the conspirators are; whether they are who official reports accuse, or who conspiracy theorists would have you believe, it's still a conspiracy either way. A government intelligence theory blaming terrorists is just as much a "conspiracy theory" as a theory blaming the government, just without the (usually political) motivative connotations.

A slightly ironic, if trivially philosophic point; mainly because I am not sure of the real subject of this thread.

yes it probably does, is a conpiracy an alleged act of collusion or is it a proved act of collusion?

Why do you both have similar usernames, avatars, and identical join dates and VB versions?

Is this a conspiracy?

Yes, the Illuminati are doing this by frying the brains of conspiracy theorists using electromagnetic waves that can be blocked only with tinfoil.

My SpoonGuard always helps me fight the conspiracies!

Yes. I believe your post is a conspiracy to sneak in your own thoughts of what conspiracies you believe in.

perhaps Cander, i can hear you clearly, although in that case wouldn't I have already raised one then?

This thread is way too Dr. Phil to be taken seriously.

You wouldn't have. You wish for us to give you the satisfaction of asking you what your theories are.
