The grand conspiracy forms a triangle of sorts. First there are the conspirators. This is typically a large, powerful, and shadowy organization with vast resources and control. They need to be powerful in order to fake moon landings, poison the public through jet exhaust, or frame terrorists for 9/11. Then there are the conspiracy theorists, an “Army of Light” that is able to see through the conspiracy (because they are just so clever). Finally, there is everyone else, the dupes or “sheeple” who believe the standard explanation of history and current events.
