For me I think it has to be Russiagate. It’s just become a catch all for centrist libs to refuse to believe anything bad about their team, make up crazy conspiracies about anyone to their left or right, dismiss every contradiction of capitalism as “Russian interference”. It’s maddening. At least the RWNJ conspiracies like Q and the Alex Jones shit are usually pretty funny because of how ridiculous they are, russiagate doesn’t even have that going for it.

What are some other contenders?

      If your takeaway from me saying "hey, be careful with conspiracies and apply critical thinking" is "but what about MY favorite conspiracy", either I have done a poor job explaining myself or you have done a poor job reading.

          Again. "Hey, be careful with conspiracies and apply critical thinking".

          I have not addressed Epstein, because that was not my point, nor will I now because quite frankly it's funny watching you wind yourself up.

          Stop falling prey to the notion that conspiracy theories are always outlandish and flat out wrong. That negative stigma is the only reason you want to call a conspiracy theory by some other different name. You subscribe to a THEORY that there was a CONSPIRACY among whoever to kill Epstein and then falsely report his death as a suicide. That is, in the most literal sense possible, a conspiracy theory, and that won't change just because you don't like the stigma surrounding the phrase.
