2472, Black Conspiracy Theorists
Posted by k_orr, Wed Feb-04-04 09:01 PM
Black Conspiracy Theorists: generally adhere to belief that any and all conspiracy theories, even when they contradict, are true.
Pros: are natural skeptics of authority; some of their claims make you ponder the plausibility; serve as great fodder for anyone who wants to write speculative fiction.

Cons: scares people into paranoia; evidence for claims are often shaky if not completely bogus; no actual solutions offered (i.e., storming the next board meeting of the Illuminati and demanding redress for a few centuries of wrongs); conspiracy theory scares often turn into a witch-hunt that can become destructive to the black community; with Anti-Semitic Czarist created fables like the “Protocols of Zion,” they and David Duke could share a booklist.

Suggestions: Critically analyze any claim and pick sense from non-sense.
