Gabriel Pettier@jensorensen shit… i guess i'm a conspiracy theorist.
Asbjørn Ulsberg@tshirtman It’s not a theory if it’s true.
@bitbear @jensorensen that's… not true, the theory of evolution is "true" (we might get some details incorrect, but the general idea has been proven true beyond any raisonnable doubt), same for gravity and other scientific theories.
I'm quite sure that the theory we are talking about is true as well, there are heaps of proofs, but it's almost as complex as evolution to get a full, correct, picture, given the number of crimes and coverups.
@tshirtman I wasn't talking in scientific terms. I'm well aware that a scientific “theory” is as close to a fact as we get.
However, outside of the field of science, the word "theory” has a different meaning; “a hypothesis assumed for the sake of argument or investigation“.

What I meant was therefore that you and I both aren't conspiracy theorists (in layman's terms), we're conspiracy factualists. :)
@bitbear @jensorensen fair enough :)
