Can we as a society/civilization please refrain from legitimizing conspiracy "theorists" with the term "theorist".

Of course many of us understand that they are more analogous to religious believers than any kind of theoretician, where, the impetus is, more so, to disprove a theory. Where as, obviously, these folks have zero inclination to disprove their "theory" and, in fact, will readily discard any contrary information and readily grasp for anything that reinforces their cognitive-bias, even if it means fanciful (to say the least) mental gymnastics.

Indeed, dispensing with the belief brokers the same cognitive dissonance as doing so with a deeply (if not necessarily sincerely, or more aptly perhaps, with any kind of fidelity) held religious belief that underpins one's sense of self.

bonus aside, select leaders for their actions and not for their slogans or brand-affiliation.
