What Is a Conspiracy?
What Is a Conspiracy?
Conspiracies exist, and they THRIVE on corruption and confusion.
I would like to accomplish a small task and end the argument about the existence of conspiracies :)
My very curious and atypically well-informed inner five-year-old is inquiring: If there is no such thing as conspiracy, why there are classified documents, NDAs, secret treaties, spies, double spies, and RICO? Why are there whistleblowers and military strategies? Why is Assange in jail? How do massacres and genocides come about, including perhaps the largest known genocide in modern history that led to the complete restructuring of the western hemisphere, as well as the cold-blooded murder of the disabled, the Jews, the gypsy, the gays, and the dissidents in the Nazi Germany? Why the GULAGs? Why did they create the CIA and the KGB? Speaking of the former, why did they bother to popularize the term “conspiracy theory” at a specific time when a shady political circumstance came to the forefront of public attention? What about the story of the “banana republic”—the coup in Guatemala organized by the CIA and the United Fruit Company?
Forget the CIA and the KGB, how about Pfizer—are they transparent? If so, how did they end up with the “largest health care fraud settlement in history”? Why did they fight with tooth and claw to hide the COVID injection data for 75 years? And why did the injection manufacturers sign agreements with governments that are so secret that even when said agreements were “disclosed”, the resulting documents were mostly edited out? What are the non-conspiratorial manufacturers hiding about their beloved safe and effective injections?
Ah! - one may say - but these are “ordinary” conspiracies! This is just people seeking money and power! And there have always been wars and reforms and competition, unfortunately…
Well ……… in this case, let’s reminisce of Bill Clinton and zoom in on the meaning of the word “is.” What IS a conspiracy? Something fancier and crazier? Like, something totally crazy? Like a plan to chip us or to make us rethink what it means to be human? Maybe an effort to block out the sunlight? Damn, all of those are bad examples of hyperbola because … ummmm … they are actually doing it! That’s it, I am running out of conspiracy theories.
Conspiracies and corruption are not mutually exclusive
In fact, conspiracies require corruption—as well as greed, confusion, fanaticism, and compartmentalization—to be successful.
The world is extremely complex, and in every situation, there are many participants with many different psychological features and motives. But I like I wrote in 2020, our entire history is a sequence of conspiracies!
Let us look at the gruesome and tragic example from early 2020 when thousands of scared, hurting people went to the hospital seeking help—and died from medical mismanagement.
The individual doctors were mostly doing their best and not deliberately killing people—but they were none the less killing them! And I suspect that even the fanatical, arrogant, narrow-minded robo-doctors following murderous algorithms at a later time— after their more curious and independent-thinking fellows had established working protocols—largely believed in their superiority and blocked out any information that didn’t agree with their ideology. But does it matter to the slain, and to the families who lost their loved ones?
And besides, the coordinated campaign to incentivize the hospitals for enforcing murderous protocols and to give them legal immunity for everything—on the condition of enforcing murderous protocols—came from somewhere. (That “somewhere” was the WHO, funded by the you know who.)
More blatantly, a campaign to ban cheap, safe, and useful medicines—to the extent of taking licenses away from the doctors using them—also came from somewhere! And there surely was somebody, somebody with experience in malaria and knowledge about malaria medicines, setting the HCQ doses in an important HCQ trial to a lethal level—as well as somebody rushing the publication of a fraudulent Lancet study on HCQ that was so bad that it had to be retracted—but not until it had made waves in the media and created a psychological impact.
Sadly, it wasn’t the first time in history when villains at the very top found ways to “recruit” unsuspecting zombies—each of them pursuing their own zombie motives—to help them accomplish their villain goals. In fact, the success of the villains greatly depends on the zombiehood of the unwitting helpers! Without that assistance, the villains are very limited in their power!
And let us not forget that they already tried to pull this entire scenario, near verbatim, with the swine flu—but it mostly flopped as there were not enough casualties to justify the “new normal.” (Please read this innocently written review from 2012, it’s truly fascinating.) And perhaps, the bureaucrats really believed in the superiority of their bullshit—believed so strongly that they felt like sacrificing a few folks here and there was worth it—but does it matter?
Here is another shocking but sadly not atypical story of an unvaccinated patient who in 2021 had to flee the hospital like she was running away from prison because the doctor was effectively doing everything to kill her—and not letting her out!!
And here is a short video of a San Diego nurse who looked after COVID patients, then kids with post-vaccine myocarditis—and who was subsequently fired for declining the injection. (You can find the full video of the board meeting here, some speakers are very impressive!)
The motive
Very often, when people try to decide if something is a “conspiracy,” they think it was less of a conspiracy if the person meant well.
The way I think about it is that for practical purposes, it makes very little difference. Perhaps sometimes—or often—the people doing harm believe their own bullshit. (See the story about the missionary mindset and a very disturbing account of the “killing nurses of the Third Reich”.) But does it matter to the ones being harmed if the “missionary” sincerely believes that he or she is doing a good thing? I don’t think so.
For example, the formal “reason” for burning witches at stake was “saving them from eternal burning.” The perverted hypocrisy deserving a million puking buckets!!!! So do you think it mattered to the women torturously murdered if the people who initiated and performed the murder might have had been so full of themselves that they actually believed that they were doing a good thing? I don’t think so!!!
Did it matter to them that sometimes the burning would be a result of a setup by an empty-handed suitor or somebody desiring her house? Or that the henchmen on the ground weren’t necessarily pondering the larger picture and the ultimate goal of destroying the dissidents and the knowledge keepers so that the remaining citizens became zombified and unprotected? Did it matter to the women in practical terms that yes, there was compartmentalization, and some people were simply acting on their dark feelings and not thinking about the big picture? I don’t think so!!!
And let’s say, it’s possible that Klaus Schwab believes his own bullshit and thinks that the Great Reset is good for our species. Does it matter? Most likely, even classic serial killers follow their own internal logic that makes them “not villains”—but none the less they are killing, and conspiring to do so! And, on a side note, there is nothing new about the practice of combining one’s “missionary obsession” with personal profit!
While we are at it, how do we look at historic good and evil, and is it absolute or subjective? Isn’t it true that good and evil are named from the position of whoever is talking? For example, if Hitler won, do you think he would be considered a terrible person? It seems to me that if he won, he would be known as the liberator of the Aryan race (whatever it means) and a founding father of a new empire, driven by love for his people…. (a million puking buckets please—again—but logic is logic!)
If you have the stomach for unpleasant facts, please read Steven Newcomb’s poignant article “On conspiracy” and compare the logic of Thomas Jefferson’s planning in regard to the “Indians” to the notorious World Economic Forum’s logic of “you’ll own nothing and be happy” … I wish I could say that there are no parallels but the parallels are plenty! The only real difference is the target demographic. And, where do we go from there?!!!
(In my ideal world, we go in the direction of honesty and recognizing the fact that taking freedom away from people is a spiritual crime regardless of the brand of the taker… a difficult thing to do!!! We all have loves and attachments!! But from there, we’ll be able to resist the current aspiring taker with much more spiritual authority than if we don’t recognize it.)
Sadly, history is never objective and always written by the winners—and so the narrative usually favors “superior, chosen people” of this sort or another. And of course, human history has seen many occasions in which a ruler in need of an army of supporters tells a feel-good story about “being chosen for a special mission,” and then proceeds with the land grab, while simultaneously sacrificing some of the “suckers” for the “being better than others” story.
(The video below is not perfect but it’s a great illustration.)
A sensory difference: an observation
It seems like there is a strong correlation between the intellectual tendency to roll one’s eyes at the notion of conspiracies as a significant driver of the past and the present—and a lack of personal experience of being manhandled. A couple of my dear friends roll their educated eyes at the existence of “conspiracy theories” and preach that a belief in conspiracies is a psychological cop-out that people use to make sense of the chaos.
Lovingly, I roll my eyes right back at them. I commiserate with their sweet innocence—but I think that this school of thought is practiced by benevolent people sans a direct experience of being raped in arse, metaphorically. The sensory difference between the people who believe in the existence of conspiracies and the ones who don’t is one direct dramatic personal experience. That kind of dramatic experience usually forces one to see the face of the Machine and realize that yes, there is a Machine. Which is why most people don’t start out as “dissidents” but become dissidents after a dramatic experience.
So yes, definitely, there are conspiracies. And all conspiracies are “ordinary.”
Case in point: the exhibits.
The exhibits
Here is a sweet innocent conspiracy theory not theory in a tweet from March 2, 2020:
And here is a tweet from the times when the notion of perpetual (till death) mandatory boosters and vaccine passports just started on the journey from an obviously crazy and implausible conspiracy theory to the obviously sane and rational thing to do:
Some evidence of obviously completely non-conspiratorial screw-tightening:
A nostalgic note about ‘ze bugs’:
Proof that we are crazy conspiracy theorists, and the ones at the wheel are entirely sane:
Proof that all the fears around the safe and effective mystery injections and the perpetual pandemic are a crazy conspiracy theory:
If you are in the position to do so, I encourage you to become a paid subscriber or donate. I love you in any case, but it helps. Thank you from my heart for your support!
Great post Tessa! CT's are a sane reaction to pervasive criminality. I like how Edward Dowd explains that deductive reasoning is a skill used by detectives... and sane people. With deduction you don't need a wiki entry, just a preponderance of evidence. A recent definition of a CT I heard was that it is a Fact, that IF TRUE would derail people's view of the world.
Great post as usual Tessa. I believe a lot of people in this part of the world cannot realize that their own leaders (political or corporate) can do them harm willingly. This is very different of course if you live in Africa or India for instance. When Nestlé killed a million newborn every year (according to USAID whistleblower) it was ok it was in the Third World. Wd didn't SEE it. When Monsanto glyphosate or Coke/Pepsi corn syrup kill people around here we don't see it either because it's slow.
Now we experience direct brutal malevolence here, fist hand. We are not used to that. People find it difficult to fathom...
I always did. Since I was a child. I knew we lived in a corrupted world led by a large group of malevolent people. That's the good thing with not being nice. At least you can (if you want) see things.
