With Tuskegee, the conspiratorial claim is often made that the men were deliberately infected. They were “just” not informed of their infected status and discouraged from seeking medical care elsewhere. This meant that they often ended up infecting their families.
I understand Black conspiracy theorists who have elaborate claims about Tuskegee - it was such a monstrous action and violation of trust that it is difficult to balance not minimizing it with being clear about what did/did not happen.

If you pick one you're 5% likely to pick the right one and be 100% correct.
You're 95% likely to pick the wrong one. Then you miss the conspiracy that is true and you believe in one that is not true so 18/20 = 90% correct.
Average out the probabilities and it should turn out to be something like 90.5%.

I feel like Conspiracy theories are at least partially the result of a lack of regulation and oversight for governing bodies and corporate entities.
For example... the atomic energy commission approved experimenting on disabled children by feeding radioactive oats to them.
It's one of the reasons we have laws like informed consent now.
Everytime we run into something new, like radiation, some company or government branch does some seriously unethical shit with it and new laws and regulations are written.
So it's like we're all just waiting to find out what new fucked up thing has happened, and how many corporations are gonna fight any proposed regulations regarding it.

It's never a question of how evil they're capable of being, but how competent.
Plenty of conspiracy theories don't work because they'd require hundreds of thousands, maybe millions, of people to completely shut up.

You ever heard of a little trillion dollar operation known as the NSA?

The McDonald's ice cream machine conspiracies do truly confirm 9/11 being an inside job.

Okay but there actually was a huge McDonald's Ice Cream Machine conspiracy that turned out to be true. McDonalds sells the machines made by Taylor Company to the Franchise Owners, then mandates that only Taylor can fix the machines which are needlessly complicated to clean and maintain, and the machines being unreliable was a design flaw known internally the entire time. When a company named Kytch created tools to make fixing them fast and easy: Taylor sued. Then Taylor made their own tool by reverse engineering Kytch's tool, so Kytch sued Taylor back for $900 Mn USD.

It be fucking impossible to coordinate hundreds of people on the world’s biggest secret, then make them and their families abide by media training for half a century.
Yes you can. The Manhattan Project was the blueprint for this.

how else are we supposed to get data on how radiation effects children? Fukushima? Hiroshima? No, neither of those was controlled and both of thosehad goals like "reducing exposure" and "saving lives" by the local government.

That ain't a conspiracy, though. They're operating in the open.

Tuskegee is why I would understand some black people not wanting to trust in the covid-19 vaccine.

I mean, they aren’t all out in the open. There’s famous ones in the media all the time that we know about. But my conspiracy theory is that there’s a lot more that we don’t.
