Back in the old days, conspiracy theories were crafted with an eye towards motive and believability.
Another artform has been lost in the past.
A while ago a lady told me that Obama wanted to “destroy America”. I asked her why Obama would want to do something that bring discredit and dishonor to the first black president in America. .. .. She looked like a caged mouse. I didn’t mean to put her on the spot, I thought she had some sort of coherent reason for believing this. Oh well.

Excuse me while I watch the sun set.
