Let's Talk About Ceps
Who that? Gimme a clue.
We'll call him 'Horton Jupiter', because that's his name. (Sort of.)

I don't think you're stupid at all, I just think you're hopelessly addicted to the idea that you're party to all sorts of secrets that are hidden from the common man. The irony is that nearly everyone thinks this way now. The educated person's version of this is reading Noam Chomsky or George Monbiot and watching Adam Curtis documentaries (all of whom have worthwhile things to say about the relationship between power and information). The other end of the spectrum is Aunt Karen on Facebook with her posts about how Big Pharma doesn't want you know that alkaline diets cure cancer and that viruses don't really exist.
You're a particularly extreme example, and you veer wildly from the Monbiot end of the spectrum to the Karen end. But this way if thinking is 'common sense' in 2020.
I think it's a woeful part of popular culture now. In the 70s and 80s it was only cranks and subcultural types that namechecked this stuff. Arguably it had the potential to be amusingly subversive then (I think that's what Robert Anton Wilson was trying to get at with his "Illuminatus" trilogy certainly).
But the reality of this in 2017 is just shit stoner culture, really. And some guy holding up a pizza restaurant with a gun, trying to find abused children.
I think "Joe Average" is an entirely accurate description. It's not at all unusual to meet people who think 9/11 was an inside job or that David Icke has "some interesting ideas" or that things are controlled by a shadowy cabal.
Shut up you tedious cunt
Tea's the guy who would be calling you paranoid for claiming our phones were being spied on 10 years ago and then when the Snowden thing went down would be acting like he knew all along
Did you believe in it before Snowden?
