    Fwiw, I got my first physical tinfoil hat from a friend warning about the debt crisis the USA was creating a year or so before “too big to fail.” I got a few e-tinfoil hats in the preceding decades.

    Conspiracy hypotheses aren’t necessarily bad, although plenty certainly are. It’s just another term to silence dissidents.
