Everything is a Conspiracy Theory

Troofers, in order avoid having to take responsibility for their dumb theories have been trying to distort the meaning of "conspiracy theory" just as they have tried to create a new meaning for the verb "pull". Alex Jones, here interviewing Jesse "The Idiot" Ventura, takes this to a new level.

That is what I am trying to say. That is what co-conspiracy theory is that the mainstream media and the dominant culture anytime you say, "Hey, I think this bailout might not be a good idea" They have been calling that a conspiracy theory. Or I think that we need to question government more or have more checks and balances. There might be some corruption in government. They call that a conspiracy theory. So basically anybody questioning the official paradigm is called a conspiracy theorist.

Huh? I don't know how the bailout bill somehow got into the realm of conspiracy theories. Opposition was so widespread that not only was it throughout the media, but the House of Representatives itself voted it down. Sorry Alex, you are not just a conspiracy theorist, you are an idiot.
