For some, conspiracy theories are gospel. For others, they’re utter nonsense. Both sides are gambling more than they realize.
Conspiracy theories occupy a peculiar space in society. They are either ridiculed as wild fantasies or clung to with cult-like devotion. Some are dangerous to ignore; others, dangerous to believe. This series explores both edges of that knife. In this first part, we examine a theory once dismissed as fringe paranoia—and how its rejection revealed a blind spot in how we confront uncomfortable truths.
