I don't like the framework of conspiracy either. Nothing is more annoying that people having evidence literally stuffed in their face and still responding that they looked into it and are conviced that obama was born in kenya for instance.
Why i'm using it is because our culture right now is being swamped with stories that are challenging the truths it was told and founded on. The vice president office is meant for photo-ops and campaign dinners, not running a private active death squad. Comments in on internet sites really come from sincere readers, not planted propaganda from nations like israel paying military to engage in a pr war. The talking heads on CNBC told us to keep investing into the economy and that it was sound, and are still saying its sound and recovering, when a lot of people are saying that we haven't even started the down turn.
In this kind of environment, its kind of easy to see people starting to wonder if Schwartzenneger really isn't a reptilian shapeshifter. It doesn't make it right. but it becomes more understandible.
