Context: The main thing that I learned about conspiracy theory is that conspiracy theorists actually believe in a conspiracy because that is more comforting. The truth of the world is that it is chaotic. The truth is, that it is not the Jewish banking conspiracy or the grey aliens or the 12 foot reptiloids from another dimension that are in control. The truth is more frightening, nobody is in control. The world is rudderless.
“May everyone live,
And may everyone die.
Hello, my love,
And my love, Goodbye.”

"The Mindscape of Alan Moore" (2003) http://themindscapeofalanmoore.com/index.html <br class="br">Context: Yes, there is a conspiracy, in fact there are a great number of conspiracies that are all tripping each other up. And all of those conspiracies are run by paranoid fantasists and ham-fisted clowns. If you are on a list targeted by the CIA, you really have nothing to worry about. If however, you have a name similar to somebody on a list targeted by the CIA, then you are dead.
“Love is a fire/It burns everyone/It disfigures everyone/It is the world's excuse for being ugly.”
