‘Conspiracy theory’ is a term that strikes fear and anxiety in the hearts of most every public figure, particularly journalists and academics. (Now, writers, podcasters, whistleblowers, and truth-tellers) Since the 1960s the label has become a disciplinary device that has been overwhelmingly effective in defining certain events as off limits to inquiry or debate. Especially in the United States, raising legitimate questions about dubious official narratives destined to inform public opinion (and thereby public policy) is a major thought crime that must be cauterized from the public psyche at all costs… CIA Document 1035-960 played a definitive role in making the ‘conspiracy theory’ term a weapon to be wielded against almost any individual or group calling the government’s increasingly clandestine programs and activities into question. – From CIA Document 1035-960
“We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.”
~ William Casey, Ronald Reagan’s first CIA Director
This is so obviously ad hominem that it should be laughable, but considering its long-term effectiveness, one must understand the power of psychological manipulation of the weak, indoctrinated, and moldable minds of simpleton Americans. As a matter of fact, name-calling as a form of silencing, which is the exclusive motive of the term ‘conspiracy theory,’ even by the narcissistic moron Trump in the White House, is now a common form of what I refer to as openly gross and manipulative brainwashing.
The word ‘conspire,’ the root of conspiracy, means to aspire or plan maliciously, agree together (2 or more people) to commit a criminal or reprehensible act; to agree, unite, plot, literally to breathe together. Theory from Latin and Greek means conception, perception, contemplation, speculation. In reality, these two terms, while independently sound, do not go together in the sense in which they are viewed today. The term ‘conspiracy theory’ as a concept, is contradictory, because it is used strictly as a weapon against speech. It relies on the ability to promote the refusal to question, to debate, to argue, or vet out the truth. It is a plotted condemnation effect, this a conspiracy in and of itself, which destroys the validity of this manufactured and bastardized response.
Real conspiracy abounds everywhere and constantly, especially where any ruling class, government, controlled or fake alternative media, or criminal behavior is apparent. What this boils down to is only name-calling; to dismiss, to shun, to marginalize, to silence, to condemn, to embarrass, to disallow questioning, to destroy free thought and speech, and to stop all intellectual curiosity, it is painfully obvious that the use of this term is entirely dishonest.
