Dr. Lively asserts that scorn for conspiracy theories in mainstream society is itself evidence of a conspiracy to inculcate self-censoring behavior in the citizenry to suppress inquiry into the agenda of the Marxist ideologies in control of our media, academia and other institutions. He argues that people conspiring to bring about mutually desired results is as normal a part of human society as breathing -- with some conspiracies being benign and some corrupt. In a truly healthy society, reasonable, evidence-based theories about conspiracies would be a natural and healthy part of public discourse, but in our unhealthy society attempts to "look behind the curtain" are suppressed by the ridicule and mockery rather than weighed objectively on their merits.
