Conspiracy as a dirty word.
Well sure those who engage in criminality will use any tactic to dismiss their critics.... and one of them is to make the critic seem crazy... and use guilt by association.
Who cares if some conspiracy theories are nuts? That does not dismiss or should be deter anyone from describing the conspiracies which are all over the place but called collaboration which is the positive sounding word.
I don't care about the label... I care or pay attention to the content... the fine print. And so the nuke *conspiracy" re 9/11 I find non credible and perhaps the people who propose it are a bit *crazy*. They don't think so... but many crazy people... ones appearing crazy to me don't think they are crazy either. Crazy is a vague word with a negative connotation.
Yes media has turned the word conspiracy into bad word and it enables people to not look into the substance of the claim.
Of course when the substance of the claim is non credible speculation... the connotation has a bit of currency.
