Any conspiracy theory that involves a large amount of people, or sophisticated coordination seems logically implausible. People do not keep secrets, especially if many people are involved, and Governments are inept at doing the most basic tasks.
This is a forum post from the Daily Paul site. In common sense logic, since you believe govt is inefficient and incompetent, why do you believe it could orchestrate a conspiracy as large as you claim? However, when you read more about conspiracy theories and the people who buy into them, they will take something like this and reason "oh, look, some infiltrator trying to logically debunk my thought process..... another reason to believe it's TRUE!!!"
I believe some time ago one of the leading conspiracy advocates on here made some reference to my demonstrated intelligence when I post, like I can write a complete sentence and use grammar correctly a majority of the time, that "when you get past all that stuff that makes t.nie look smart, why, he's dumb as a box of rocks and totally brainwarshed!!!"
People who study the people who believe in conspiracies report that those people twist any reasoning or intelligent argument (that the majority of normal people would conclude makes perfect logical sense in the normal, traditional sense of the word) that debunks the conspiracy is just another reason to believe the conspiracy is true and everyone is trying to deceive them.
"Self-sealing reasoning." Nothing that normal folk would consider good evidence to debunk the ridiculous conspiracy can be believed. But the self-proclaimed "schizophrenic entertainer?" They'll believe anything he tells them, no questions. Just check out TheBlaze for "the truth!" lol
