    Not quite, because denying the existence (or possible truth I should say) of conspiracy theories and only accepting conspiracies done in the open only serves to keep the yet unproven ones a secret.

    Epstein’s island wasn’t exactly on twitter, but it was happening, yet anyone before the files were released that said “our country is controlled by pedos who worship Moloch and eat people” was called crazy. Well now that it is conspiracy fact instead of a theory, where’s my apology? Nowhere, just mental gymnastics “well some of the people who said that thought it was ‘the jews’ so no dice.”

    Another one, when the island got raided and he wound up dead, many theorized he had been murdered, come to find out that evidence supports this, so let’s assume you accept that even though it contradicts the official story. But then many theorized he worked for Mossad. Mossad still denies it but the FBI and the emails seem to indicate there was truth to that, now, will it take Mossad admitting it for you to not call those who think it’s probable “crazy?”

    Just because something is done in secret and/or denied by the perpetrators doesn’t mean it isn’t happening. Don’t just blindly believe the official narriative or you’ll wind up thinking a 30-06 round got caught in Charlie’s soft fleshy neck instead of blowing right through as it would on anyone else “because he was superman.”

        Wow two similar concepts (that are both not “in the open” which is your standard for belief it seems) are actually not the exact same thing? It’s almost like that’s why there are different words for them, this is revolutionary! It’s almost like you’re telling me that despite both being colors, red isn’t actually blue! Wow. You must be top of your class, huh?

        Fucking duh “doing something in secret” and “lying about doing the secret thing” are different, one is doing an action and one is going “nuh uh” when called out. You ok dude? Have a stroke or something?
