When you see the phrase "conspiracy theory" thrown around today, it's usually from someone who has something to hide.

When our Overlords decided that THIS thing is a WOMAN
Then the term "conspiracy theory" lost all meaning....

Its a term to disqualify you from arguing with a progressive. "Everything I didn't learn from Reddit is a conspiracy theory."
They've ruined it like they have racism.

Is this thread irrational?
This exact point was covered early on in the thread:

You talking about real conspiracy theories or conspiracy theories that are things that have been proven true but go against the media narrative

Believing none of the conspiracy theories = crazy
The only correct position is believing some of the conspiracy theories.
But if you believe Trump said we should drink bleach and called neo-Nazis "fine people", then you're just plain stupid.

Substituting mainstream opinions with crackpot theories that someone else spoon fed to you is illogical though. Those are the people that we have a problem with.
Just a few months ago it was considered a “crackpot theory” that government was directing Twitter to censor people. Now it’s a conspiracy fact.

mainstream opinions
Trump Russia collusion, Trump said drink bleach, Trump praised Nazis, were all ‘mainstream’ beliefs at one time.

Franklin called her 'horseface' but she was intelligent.
I really can't stand to talk about mundane topics such as 'how is your family' .
No one has mentioned Roswell.
Colonel Jesse Marcel claimed to have seen and handled parts of a crashed UFO in New Mexico. His family owned a auto repair/bicycle shop in Houma Louisiana.
Integrated circuit chips.
Fiber optic cable.
Stealth technology.
All now in use today.
Before 1947 we barely had transistors, now we have thousands of them on a small chip, prior we used vacuum tubes.
Oswald was an idiot who ,according to his wife, would run around the house on Magazine St., in his drawers, jumping over the furniture. She said he had dreams of being a secret agent.
I've read 20 books on the assassination and I have come to the conclusion that Oswald did not have the courage to shoot the president.
Our government panders to the lowest common denominator in order to keep them under control.
The ones who can think out of the box, critical thinkers(Occam's Razor) are labelled as Nuts.

This is simply not true
It was almost universally accepted by all people that multiple tech companies were censoring people. And it's well known that these tech companies work with the government. And they didn't even deny it. They just called it "content moderation" because they didn't want to call it censorship.

The average person is still waiting on approval from their media masters to accept this as fact. I believe they still don't believe it.

Sgt MarshMallowNads with another gem.
If you want the answer keep watching Joy Reid, Rachel Sadcow or the Gaslight Media propagandist of your liking.

The point is that there are different things labeled "conspiracy theories"
There are real ones, like the JFK assassination, moon landing, Annuaki, NWO variants, "banking elite", etc.
Then there are manufactured partisan talking points that are ultimately proven wrong (like the recent Twitter stuff, lots of Covid stuff, Hunter Biden's laptop was disinfo, etc), which are really only linked to "conspiracy theories" because those same talking points projected CT labels on those who bucked the talking points.
Some are in the middle of these 2, like the Russian Collusion CTs

The average person always suspected that this was the case
This was never considered a "crackpot" conspiracy theory
This is just revisionist history by people who want other actual crackpot theories to be accepted as reasonable

Yes it is. The media and democrats outright denied there was coordination with the government to censor Americans. The Progstains right here on this board adamantly denied the collusion between government and big tech to silence conservatives.
If Elon hadn’t purchased Twitter and released those files you’d still be insisting government big tech collusion is a “crackpot theory” and you know it. You have to acknowledge it now because of the overwhelming evidence that it’s true.

It WAS true. You can't count on people to connect the dots, especially when doing so goes against their narrative. The transitive property of government interference goes above their IQ. Remember, liberals are the same ones who think you shouldn't hunt because you can get meat from the store instead of from killing animals, and that the government pays for things instead of taxpayers.

I mean they banned Trump (among others). They couldn't deny they were censoring people.
He didn't even state the talking point correctly. It's that social media was disproportionately censoring one political side and was acting in partisan lock step with one political party. Even this, very few disagreed with and most of those people were on the "proliferating memetic talking points" side of things rather than the "consumer of memetic talking points" side of things
