Stephen’s Reviews > None Dare Call It Conspiracy > Status Update

Conspiracy sleight of hand: yes, many "great men" of history were real bastards, and things don't go the way one might prefer... therefore every hypocritical powerbroker bastard is *actually* a puppet of (((international bankers)))?? It doesn't follow at all, but to the fertile imagination and reactionary character boy does it *feel* true.

> In order to understand the conspiracy it is necessary to have some rudimentary knowledge of banking
Uh oh
> and, particularly, of international bankers.
Oh fuck here we go

>Nobody enjoys being put in the position of accusing prominent people of conspiring to enslave their fellow Americans[…]
Maybe not, but surely some people feel a rush when they believe they're bringing the Truth down from the mountain top

Ah, the author originally wanted to prove the conservatives *wrong*, but wouldn't you know it, turns out they were 100% correct all along! (This is called an "avowal of prior skepticism"—maybe it's even true!)

>We keep electing Presidents who seemingly promise faithfully to […] toss the criminals into the hedgerow where they belong.
Capping the Bircher wishlist, a bizarre euphemism.
