Accusing people you disagree with of being CIA plants and paid spreaders of disinformation, employing the tactics of broad brush, guilt by association, and ad hominem. And you know where ALL of that has been coming from? Supporters of conspiracy. So yes, that's really most amusing.
See, it's like this. Rational inquiry examines the evidence, and leads from there to a conclusion. Conspiracy thinking starts with a conclusion and ignores all the evidence that contradicts it. I used to believe there was a conspiracy in the Kennedy assassination, myself. Thought so for years. But then I finally got around to reading things that presented the evidence and discovered that pretty much every single pro-conspiracy author selectively represented, distorted, or omitted well-established evidence.
