Dale,

Re:
I know you understand the true conspiracy behind all events in the universe


I would love it if this were the case. But my security clearance status (i.e. nil) precludes such omniscience. <grin>

However, I certainly do pay much more attention than most people to the actions of secret government and elitist cabals. After all, it's a sign of intelligence (no pun intended) to pay attention the story behind the news. :)

Three brief examples should suffice.

Did GM and Big Oil conspire in the 1920s and 1930s to destroy the public tramways in American cities? Of course they did. That's established history.

Did Egyptian Zionists conspire in the Lavon Affair to foment Britain and France to attack their Muslim enemies in Egypt? Of course they did. They were sentenced for the crime.

Did Lyndon Johnson conspire with the JCS and DefSec to enlarge the war in Viet Nam with the falsified evidence of the Tonkin Gulf "attack"? Of course they did. Publicly available documents make this irrefutable.

So, let me introduce you to Ray's Conspiracy Theory. "More so than ought to be the case, elites seeking power, advantage and personal gain engage with each other to create "facts on the ground" that are then conveniently misrepresented to the public by an obliging media."

Actually, thinking about this further, perhaps I should call this Ray's Observation of Conspiracy Fact.

Re: I am just a shallow dupe

That's the last conclusion I'd reach based on your erudite and wise postings. :)
