Everything is a global conspiracy to people like you.
With reasoning like that, I guess nothing is ever a conspiracy to people like you.
History very clearly shows the myriad ways the powerful enact 'conspiracy theory' agendas, regularly. To not include these learnings in your worldview is folly. Epstein is a giant 'conspiracy theory' that's sitting out in the open. The inaction to do anything about it is another one.
Yeah and the AI Power Grab mentioned by Bernie Sanders totally isn't happening right before our eyes.
Never mind the surveillance state run by fascists who want nothing more than a neutered population that lets them do what they want.
Or the fact that the world is building data centers on behalf of techbros that openly state that they want to control the entire population through limiting their access to information and rendering it a subscription
Or the manipulation of public opinion through 24h news cycles and infinite pundits online that pick and choose their words very carefully to make people believe what the news station owners want them to think (and I quote) "He's telling them what to think. That's our job."/"This is very dangerous to our democracy."
Or the petrochemical companies paying billions to super pacs and lobbying groups so that anti pollution laws don't get pushed and the media circus doesn't talk about how many spills there are, or why our air is becomic toxic, or why the things that climate scientists have been warning the world about are coming true one after another.
It's aaaaallll just a "conspiracy theory"
Nothing to see. In the words of an amazon manager standing over a dying colleague instead of calling an ambulance "Lets not look, Get back to work"
