Just for the record:
Biden conspired with 52 former and current intelligence agency personnel and had them swear by and sign a statement that said that the Biden laptop story was Russian propaganda.
The New York Post and other people who tried to report on the story were not only called conspiracy theorists but also were censored and banned.
And that is a winning strategy for political operatives because it's got people like you outright being dismissive of truths. Honestly, it would be very easy to mock the name-callers, like you. But sometimes it's funnier to just let you go on.
It doesn’t make me dismissive of truths. But I think the more people required to pull whatever it is off, the more likely it is to fail. More than 5-10 people and it almost approaches a zero percent chance.
I’ve learned from my own experience that crazy or unusual things that happen often become attributable to a grand conspiracy because it then becomes the neatest path to explain something that was much more likely to be: something not as bad or extreme as it initially is portrayed, something that is a complex confluence of unrelated events, or just a coincidence. What seems certain and nefarious today often isn’t when time passes.
I’m reading an excellent book on Watergate. A “conspiracy” to commit a crime and another one to cover it up. In both cases, the exception to the rule were the actors who were able to maintain any semblance of covertness for even a day. The entire thing has proven to be an excellent blueprint of what goes wrong when human beings conspire to do anything of the ill nature. Smart men and women, highly motivated to see their mission through, huge incentives not to be found out - failure on these fronts.
