Why do you use the term Conspiracy theory/ist

Swamping eh?

Yep, swamping.

Solihull was swamped with Christmas shoppers today.
The men had a bit of a zombie look about them.

Shopping at Touchwood. John Lewis.

I always thought you were from London for some reason! Solihull is ok, much smaller than Birmingham so a little bit more tolerable...

It's my worldly wise aura, born in London so my roots are there but no, Mids.

War Propaganda, Media Censorship and the “Conspiracy Theory” Meme. Project Censored 2016

Project Censored 2016 Media Summit Round Table

In recent years, as documented on this site and on the Global Research News Hour radio program, we have seen an acceleration in the level of propaganda and its ability to shape common narratives around war.

The Assad government is blamed for virtually all the blood being spilt in Syria in recent years, in spite of evidence to the contrary. Russia, not NATO, is being blamed for an imperialist agenda for Ukraine and Eastern Europe. And a McCarthyist narrative accusing President Putin of interference in the 2016 US Presidential elections has taken hold in spite of an almost complete lack of evidence upholding that narrative.

More to the point, reporters risk being tagged ‘conspiracy theorists’ or ‘Russian agents’ if they dare to challenge these and other official narratives.

Billions of dollars of investment, not to mention political careers are dependent on maintaining these narratives, so it is understandable that dissident perspectives will sooner or later come under attack if the body politic begins to be influenced by them.

This is why media criticism and independent reporting has become such an important tool for building democratic resistance to corporate and State power. .

While many conspiracy theories turn out to be correct.
The Bank of England and the media tried for years to shut people like me and Fletch up with the CT label when it came to the fact ... the fact that banks make money out of thin air and lend it to you and governments at interest. They lend money they don't have they create money through debt and all our money is created as units of debt as opposed to units of value.
Maddog in politics argued with us placing his university education in economics as his guide that we uneducated were stupid.
Well our stupid beat his expensive education.
The Bank of England finally admitted that yes money is created out of thin air by high street banks and loaned out at interest.
It's now that obvious it's hard to believe it could ever have been a CT.

I tend to go by how mad the supporters of said theory are.

Seconded.
