The enduring allure of conspiracies Conspiracy theories seem to meet psychological needs and can be almost impossible to eradicate. One remedy: Keep them from taking root in the first place.
The United States of America was founded on a conspiracy theory. In the lead-up to the War of Independence, revolutionaries argued that a tax on tea or stamps is not just a tax, but the opening gambit in a sinister plot of oppression. The signers of the Declaration of Independence were convinced â based on âa long train of abuses and usurpationsâ â that the king of Great Britain was conspiring to establish âan absolute Tyrannyâ over the colonies. âThe document itself is a written conspiracy theory,â says Nancy Rosenblum , a political theorist emerita at Harvard University. It suggests that thereâs more going on than meets the eye, that someone with bad intentions is working behind the scenes. If conspiracy theories are as old as politics, theyâre also â in the era of Donald Trump and QAnon â as current as the latest headlines. Earlier this month, the American democracy born of an eighteenth century conspiracy theory faced its most severe threat yet â from another conspiracy theory, that (all evidence to the contrary) the 2020 presidential election was rigged. Are conspiracy theories truly more prevalent and influential today, or does it just seem that way? (...)

Indeed. Thanks Red_Dragon.
P.S. If I did not know any better, the author Nicholas Grossman has taken political sociology courses, to his credit and to our benefit.
