There have been a number of postings here recently at OpEdNews regarding conspiracy theories. This is one more that sheds a proper context to just what is a "conspiracy theory." It illustrates a very good reason why some people believe what they do, i.e., those that believe the 9/11 false flag "conspiracy theory" cannot be true because it is, well, a "conspiracy theory." How does the New York Times play a role?

"You have something special and important here. Somehow you manage to teach and suggest and introduce the reader to concepts in a way that feels inclusive. Like, we're thinking about it together. Partly it might be because the subject, bottom-up, is innately understood by all of us and so it feels like you're stirring up stuff we already know. But also I think it's because you truly are practiced at connection consciousness and so it's natural for you (I'm guessing) to write about it with a desire to include us. As a reader I was learning more because it feels like you're inviting me to think with you."
