The Pyramid Conspiracy

The Anatomy of Conspiracy Theory

The word "conspiracy theory" is a twisting of the ego's natural fear of appearing foolish. It's a projection defense that acts like a bathroom pass through the halls of reason. It's a "quarantine" sticker that comes on a roll for the intellectually lazy. What's worse, it serves as a cloak for evil and a reward for a population's apathy. It's the most twisted tool in the book and it has been crafted that way for centuries.

A gypsy has a certain reputation. They also have a shared bag of tricks. The ones that make it only do so because they are effective. MKUltra evolved from the gypsies. Cold reading a subject is a form of ego baiting. Ego can be manipulated with confidence. Everyone knows that but people who dismiss "conspiracy" don't know that a confidence game can also work in reverse.

Conspiracy theory is logical fallacy

Conspiracy theory is argumentum ad hominem for stupid people. It was also introduced to the populace during the Kennedy assassination by the media. To point this out, ironically is a conspiracy theory. Hence, to point it out will be met with ridicule, not questions. This is how manipulation works. There is no dopamine rewarded for anyone caught being "foolish." You can see the mind rape when you realize the "foolish" ones are the people who were brave enough to investigate. They gambled with their dopamine supply to satisfy a quest for truth.

Ad hominem, short for argumentum ad hominem, is a fallacious argumentative strategy whereby an argument is rebutted by attacking the character, motive, or other attribute of the person making the argument, or persons associated with the argument, rather than attacking the substance of the argument itself.

The term itself is a form of ad hominem and can be applied to any theory that applies doubt to the higher authority . It is a function of any social pyramid structure. It is the act of questioning what should not be question. Detractors try and attach a subversive plot element to it but that is not a requirement for any

There is always an authority brought into question and a resistance

Where's a better place to hide than behind someone's ego? This makes conspiracy the greatest camouflage ever invented.

Sort:  

The term "conspiracy theory" was created by the CIA to denigrate the people who didn't buy the corporate line that Oswald was a communist agent who acted on his own. It has been successfully used ever since to avoid dealing with an issue.download.jpg
