Incidentally if one disconnects from the two party system in the US and just observes you see over time that both sides push conspiracy theories and seem to lose all their logic when it suits their goals.
The democrats mock Alex Jones but peddle their own nonsense like the Russian nonsense with Trump.
For anyone interested in conspiracy theory kinds of things that are corroborated by people on the record check out "Legacy of Ashes: The History of the CIA".
After reading that book I remember thinking that the government was beyond saving. This was back when I was a voter. There are no conspiracy theories in this book but many of the things documented sound like it and were theories before they were documented by the actors in the stories.
The actions of the CIA often against orders from the Presidents are very interesting for anyone that denies the deep state exists and has its own agendas.
The book is based on more than 50,000 documents, primarily from the archives of the CIA, and hundreds of interviews with CIA veterans, including ten Directors of Central Intelligence. Legacy of Ashes won the 2007 National Book Award for Nonfiction.

I consider this book one of the reasons I started seeing the state for what it is. It was at least part of my disillusionment with participating in the system
