Principles Underlying Our “Semiotics of Conspiracy Theory” initiative

Here is Prinicple One in INT3RP INC's The Semiotics of Conspirarcy Theory initiative: Conspiracy theories keep believers from seeing (or searching for) the real system that oppresses them, which is what the oppressor encourages!

Here is Principle Two: The “evidence” for conspiracy is usually “hidden in plain sight,” though what is actually hidden is the conspiracy theorist’s own prejudice, fear, & servitude—not the evidence.

Each week I will be posting a new principle!
