one of the main problems with todays consiracy threories is that they presume high levels of competence in politicians and bureacrats.

💯
Competence and an unwavering ability for everyone to keep the secret.
no need for that when you have manufactured and normalised something that is wrong
those who profit from participation keep the secret out of self interest "this racket benefits me but if too many people are in it we stop getting the ponzi premium"
we also underestimate the power of compartmentalized bureaucracy combined with modern cowardice.
i think it's a paradox, i think evil and high competence as well as complete ineptitude live side by side
This is true
The latin roots of 'conspiracy' mean "to breathe together"
