“Conspiracy theories tend to be simple, powerful stories that explain the world. Reality is complex and messy, which is harder for our brains to process.”

Truth is usually very simple. Lies tend to be complex and messy, which makes it harder to figure out. Take derivatives for example. They have very long and technical descriptions. The reality is these instruments are bets. Yes, they are that simple. The assets are designed to be hidden so people don't know what the underlying bet is.

Criminals don't want people to observe them committing their crimes. Therefore, complex lies are concocted to hide the truth. As Jean-Claude Juncker so eloquently stated: "when it becomes serious, you have to lie (startpage.com)"

Hahahaha

I thought about writing one for "talking to Moderate Relatives" but I couldn't come up with anything more realistic than: "Don't bother, they're cowards & betas"
