Yeah fair dos. I've just been pointing out some of the underlying motivations I can see behind conspiracism in this thread.
I know what you mean about politics just using minorities in this country.
I don't have that felt perception of being differently raced no, even though I am (well half of me is) - 'cos I look so white I have to consciously think myself into that perspective tbh, though I do think that gives me a sense of not fully fitting in or not identifying with class and social structures in the same way as someone from a different background might do. But I think this is true of near everyone to one degree or another.
Oh sure. If I'm doing political work I will fight tooth and nail to combat conspiracy-like thinking, not least because undercover coppers love it. I don't mean to be harsh about the whole spycops scandal, but reading some of the interviews I was like kind of yeah, in hindsight its pretty obvious these people were dodge. @luka is right that I should not be in charge of a political organisation cos I'll constantly test people with very long and boring books, the bain of the old bill.
