Daniel Neun | One need only translate the terms “conspiracy theorists” as “heretics”
"One need only translate the terms "conspiracy theorists" as "heretics" to know the tradition in which these terms stand and those who use them. Ultimately, it is about the accusation of apostasy from the ruling faith, which is determined by the ruling authorities and majorities. (Faith in this respect can also be translated as ruling doctrine, ideology, etc.). Thus, contrary to the subjective view of many of its users, the terms are themselves expressions of clerical and authoritarian thought structures based on subjugation as a basic psychological pattern. It is denunciatory, inquisitorial. It is directed against classical skepticism. Thus, the main purpose of these terms can only be to discredit "serious conjectures", hypotheses and facts, and thereby prevent real causal research."
