The Conspiracy Chart & The JFK Assassination | FEAT. Baewolf
“Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people. To destroy this invisible government, to befoul the unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the first task of the statesmanship of today.”
Don't look at us... good old Teddy Roosevelt said it first in 1913. For clarification, we don't often agree with conspiracy theories here at the Wolf and Bull. Too many of them are difficult, if not impossible, to prove. The quote above, inferring an "invisible" government (which goes by a different name today - rhymes with "steep date") is one that makes us scratch our heads though. Was Teddy appealing to popular opinion at the time? Was he letting normies in on the game? Who knows?
We know that conspiracy theories hinge on the idea of "what is most probable." The problem with this is that "probable" is subjective to many people. In 2021, The Conspiracy Chart was published by Abbie Richards. It's a wonderful little upside-down triangle that acts as a guard dog against misinformation, by using news articles & pseudo interest groups to categorize the various "levels" of conspiracy theories.
In episode 79 of the Wolf and Bull podcast, the team discusses The Conspiracy Chart and appeals to authority arguments that coincide with it. Additionally, we touch briefly on the recent documents released concerning the John F. Kennedy assassination.
