From what I'veseenof human behavior I've come to conclude that conspiracies are actually quite common, almost to the point of ubiquity. But they're almost always quite small, and usually pretty banal. The big ones pretty much always get exposed.
You know, like trump's collusion with putin.
The problem is when people dream up Grand Unified Conspiracy Theories, blaming everything on whichever group they choose to hate. EVIL PEOPLE NEVER WORK TOGETHER FOR LONG. So I usually put large patterns of apparent conspiracy down to groupthink. People need to avoid the "made to make" fallacy. You better have evidence beyond assumed motives, because if not your conspiracy theory is merely a conspiracy hypothesis.
