I think a big part of it is that it’s so damn confusing, and which my be by design. To really get a handle on this I’ve listened to likely 100 hours of audio and close to 1,000 pages of text.

It reminds me of the 2nd most disturbing conspiracy I know of, something that literally not a single conspiracy theorist I’ve ever met has even heard of, which is the Inslaw PROMIS affair, something so confusing that it wasn’t until I got Vicuna, the open source AI, to write a summary for me did I have a way to quickly explain what the hell I was talking about.

From all that I learned a valuable lesson: Real conspiracies are too crazy for normal people, not crazy enough for conspiracy theorists, and too confusing for both groups.
