Deconspiracy theory

" summary

The talk surveys the social environment around popular conspiracy theories about 9/11 and “USrael,” building on last year’s discussion of misreadings of Robert Anton Wilson. It suggests treating conspiracy theories as playful cognitive toys in Wilson’s consciousness-expanding tradition and asks why such theories are seldom deconstructed but frequently amplified.
