Explaining belief in the absurd

[SoFarSoGood]

It comes from the very nature of a 'conspiracy theory'; it presupposes a ultra powerful and secretive 'them' about whom by definition "we can never know much". As they are ultra powerful and we can never know the extent of their power they can be resposible for anything. Because we can never know about 'them' they can never be disproved. The definitions of the terms make verification and falsification impossible.
