This possibility popped into my head the other day and I thought I would see what some of you thought about it.
We know the CIA promoted the term “conspiracy theory” as a psyop to discredit the American public who asked questions about the Warren Report. This served as a way to ridicule people who either shared information or asked questions about other instances, like the UAP Phenomenon and many other shady and unethical things our government has done in the past.
So what happens next when the “conspiracy theories” begin being proven to be true? (MKultra, the poisoning of alcohol during prohibition by the US Treasury Dept, The Tuskegee Experiment, October Surprise, etc etc etc). Wow. So many. Turns out the “crazy conspiracy theorists have actually been correct about… A lot. So now how do you discredit them?
Well, you would probably put forth a concentrated effort into pushing a lot of fake conspiracies, right? You would peddle them to a group that doesn’t have a lot of critical thinking and you would bait them as very bipartisan.
Now, when people bring up things like the Phenomenon and UAP, the reverse engineering program, or a “Shadow Government”, the public automatically associates these people with QANON (people who outright dismiss science and facts) and immediately dismisses them.
This just seems so evident to me.
I am curious if anyone else believes this to be the case.
