I don't agree. Of course there are wacked out conspiracy theorists on the far left and right and it's best to just ignore them. But, there really are issued that need to be brought to light and some of those posters on the left did a fine job doing that. Sometimes conspiracies really happen. Just look at all the BS the government shoveled out during Viet Nam. Anyone back then who challenged the official government line would have been called a conspiracy theoriest, but later proven right by such things as the Pentagon Papers. I remember hearing about the Iran-Contra allegations of illegal weapons trading and drug dealing from some political activists on the streets of DC in the summer of 1986, three months before the charges hit the mainstream media. Iran/Contra certainly seemed like a crazy conspiracy when I first heard about it on the streets of DC in the summer of 1986, but turned out to be a real conspiracy that involved some of the highest ranking people in the Reagan Administration.
