A Soros-owned space laser is a conspiracy theory. Citadel forcing Robinhood to disable buys due to their massive short position is not.

I feel that many people are lumping hypotheses into the conspiratorial bucket because of Qanon and current events. Are all skeptics conspiracy theorists?



The space laser is certainly more outlandish, but both are fundamentally the same. They both posit (contra all the available evidence!) that sinister forces are behind something in the world that you feel has gone wrong.
