107. Apples and Oranges
Most of the 'conspiracies' you mention pass some sort of reasonableness test. In fact, I'm not sure they are conspiracies in the way most people thing of conspiracies. Some of them are mismangement, lack of accountability, lack of caring, and lying.

I dont 'belittle' anything immediately. However, after some basic facts, some theories are just nonsense. How many people clung to the Earth is Flat despite proof offered that it wasn't?

The problem with many conspiracy theorists is that they are so joined at the hip with their beliefs and emotions, that no matter what evidence surfaces, the evidence itself become part of the coverup. Its like arguing with someone about religion.
