from And Another Thing with Dave · host Dave Smith
The term conspiracy theorist was coined by the CIA in 1967 to discredit people who were questioning the assassination of Kennedy. Now the term is used to discount anyone who questions an official narrative. There are MANY proven conspiracies revealed through the freedom of information act. Why would a government discourage people from digging for the truth and discredit those who do choose to do research. Could it be that the US government has something to hide. Well you dont have to look very far to find the skelatons in the closet. The US has a HORRID record when it comes to foreign policy, but there are many clandestine operations that targeted US citizens. Links to recommended videos below.
