One thing that I've noticed with conspiracy theorists that comes up time and time again, is the fact that conspiracy theorists don't like being called conspiracy theorists. Some actually even believe that the use of the label in and of itself is a conspiracy to marginalize and discredit conspiracy theorists.



So what is a conspiracy theorist? Let's look at our definitions. A conspiracy is defined as a secret plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful. A theorist, is obviously a person who creates theories. Therefore its not far fetched to state that a person who believes in theories about a conspiracy, are conspiracy theorists. The debate should end there, right? Unfortunately it doesn't.



Conspiracy theorists reject the label, in favor of other labels such as "truthers", "conspiracy realists" (like how some racists call themselves 'race realists' and holocaust deniers call themselves 'history revisionists'), and other place holders for what they are, which is conspiracy theorists.



It is my guess that conspiracy theorists don't like being called conspiracy theorists, because of the stereotype that comes with the territory. The thing they fail to recognize, is that the stereotype is there for a reason. If there weren't already conspiracy theorists that It is my guess that conspiracy theorists don't like being called conspiracy theorists, because of the stereotype that comes with the territory. The thing they fail to recognize, is that the stereotype is there for a reason. If there weren't already conspiracy theorists that actually wear tinfoil hats , people wouldn't attach that stigma to conspiracy theorists. If there weren't already conspiracy theorists that hold ridiculous beliefs, such as hybrid human-alien reptilian shape shifters controlling the planet , there wouldn't be any need to believe that conspiracy theorists hold ridiculous beliefs.



Changing labels to avoid the stigma associated with them as a result of their own behavior is just proof that conspiracy theorists don't want to clean up their own garbage, just like how private military contractor Changing labels to avoid the stigma associated with them as a result of their own behavior is just proof that conspiracy theorists don't want to clean up their own garbage, just like how private military contractor Blackwater changed their name several times to distance themselves from the bad reputation that they rightfully deserve for their actions in the Middle East



No matter what you change your labels to though, the result will still be the same as long as the behavior is still the same. To quote William Shakespeare, "A rose by any other name would smell just as sweet". I can start calling my bowel movements a "truth movement", but I would still be talking about the same old shit.



I will say this, however, that it isn't good to generalize an entire group of people based on the actions of a few. That is why I have two different labels that I use to discern the difference between conspiracy theorists, and the idiots that drag the label down.



Conspiracy theorists are just that; people with theories about conspiracies. Nothing more, nothing less.



Conspiratards, however, are a different breed altogether.



Conspiratards are the ones who opted for the red suppository rather than the red pill. They don't just believe in a few conspiracy theories, they believe every last one of them. They believe everyone who doesn't share in their beliefs are in on the conspiracy. They believe that the lack of evidence to support a conspiracy theory proves the theory to be true. They treat speculation as though it were fact.



Conspiratards are the ones like Conspiratards are the ones like Sean Fitzgerald of We Are Change who murdered his father as a result of his paranoid delusions that were exacerbated by conspiracy theories.



Conspiratards are the ones that would drink the organic patriot blend kool aid at Jonestown 2.0 for their cult leader Alex Jones.

Conspiratards are that extreme, often mentally ill side of internet CT culture that conspiracy theorists refuse to acknowledge. Not all conspiracy theorists are mentally ill, but you can't deny that Conspiratards are that extreme, often mentally ill side of internet CT culture that conspiracy theorists refuse to acknowledge. Not all conspiracy theorists are mentally ill, but you can't deny that conspiracy theories definitely appeal to people with those with mental illnesses . I would even go so far as to claim that, in some cases, there are elements of internet CT culture that intentionally appeal to, and take advantage of, the mentally ill (I will expound on this subject in particular more in a later post. There are some really despicable people out there taking advantage of the mentally ill portion of conspiracy theorists). From what I understand, paranoid schizophrenics already have an extreme proclivity to believe in and create conspiracy theories by their very nature.



All I ask of conspiracy theorists when it comes to this, is to own their shit. If they want to actually affect the world in a positive way, and form a movement that actually values the truth, they should really think about how they portray themselves and think about the type of people they wish to appeal to and attract. You don't win anyone over by declaring a person to be an agent of some random alphabet agency simply because they do not share your beliefs.



Also, I would like to ask this of any conspiratards that might be reading this right now. Why can't you ever just focus on the many negative aspects of the world that we KNOW to be true, and attempt to put an end to them, rather than focusing on creating fiction to entertain yourselves in a perpetual circle jerk to make yourselves feel like you're actually doing something good and helping the human race progress? Why do you feel like making it so damn hard on the rest of us who just want to actually find the truth when they are doing research into a subject, without having to wade through mountains and mountains of misinformation and conspiratainment propaganda to find a sliver of decent information? Media is already shitty enough at reporting information without having you to add your bullshit into the mix!



And just a general question not directed at anyone in particular; why is it, that in the year 2014, people are still able to fall for the same type of conspiracy theory propaganda that was used by the Nazis in WW2? And just a general question not directed at anyone in particular; why is it, that in the year 2014, people are still able to fall for the same type of conspiracy theory propaganda that was used by the Nazis in WW2? There are still roots of Nazi propaganda prevalent in modern day conspiracy theories . We still have morons who actually believe the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion is a factual document, for fucks sake! Have we not learned a single fucking thing from all that blood shed?





People often ask, how could the Germans be so easily manipulated by Nazi propaganda? To find the answer, look no further than conspiratards.
