His conspiracy process model is wildly unlike that of actual empirical conspiracies.  In particular, most of them do not require widespread, hidden knowledge of a single juicy lie that can be &quot;exposed&quot;.  Hell, a lot of objective cabals or conspiracies operate relatively openly, are fairly open about their general goals, &amp; their actions are public records; the specific correlation between goals and actions is what is obscure.<p>&quot;We further assume that a leak of information from any conspirator is sufficient to expose the conspiracy and render it redundant&quot;<p>This is just stupid.
