To illustrate the silliness of most conspiracy theories, let's build one that has every bit of "evidence" as [stuff] like the Sandy Hook conspiracy does. We'll use the same techniques: questions as "proof," photos that "show" what they don't really, confusion of identities, scientific "facts" misused, genuine (usually incredibly minor) mistakes assumed to be intentional, nefarious, material, and important, and misdirection to a new bit of "proof" as soon as one piece is thoroughly dismantled, usually circling back around to the first bit of discredited "proof" once the last bit is completely refuted.
So, what we need first is a major event, for which there is a simple explanation. Then we need some group with evil intent. We substitute some complicated explanation of how the event was engineered by the group to further their evil intent. Then we will look for "proof," which I guarantee we will be able to uncover!
Suggestions for the major event?
Remember, it does not matter how many people would have to willingly go along or be duped.
Let's have some fun with this. Who knows? It could go viral, and some folks could end up believing it!
Anyone? Bueller?
