The very first thing that you must remember about a conspiracy is that it is nothing without a theory. Work out a believable theory - in a way that I will show you now - and you are on your way to millions. Once you have your conspiracy theory you can write several books, using the same material, but just in a different way over and over and over again and again and again. Don’t forget to give the books different, but exotic sounding, names like Jesus and the Aliens from the planet Niburu, Leonardo Da Vinci on the space ships of Ezekiel, etc.
The method is as follows:
* Pick a target for your conspiracy which will not come back and bite you in the butt. A bad choice will be real Aliens (they will probe your anus with sharp instruments). Another bad choice is Muslims (they will scream hysterically while chopping off your head in front of the cameras.) The worst choice is Hungarians (they will chop you into little pieces and will preserve you in a glass jar.)
* Describe everything out of context, BUT write in a logical fashion. (Say Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene, because an unmarried woman was not allowed to wash a man’s feet in those years. A married woman would not have been allowed to wash another man’s feet, so Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene) This will mean doing some research, but that is why the Wikipedia is there.
* It is important to make a very big thing of symbols. In reality the same symbol is often used for different purposes at different times in out history. Use this fact to prove your hare brained theories. For example Coca Cola is written with a cursive font, that originates from the Middle Ages. This means that Coca Cola is a front for the evil Free Masons, which was formed out of the Knights Templars who lived in the Middle Ages. Or you can say that the cursive font is being used by secret cocaine societies in the Andes Mountains, which means that there are cocaine in Coke. See how easy it is if you combine this with taking things out of context?
* The Reptilian Overlords, the Lizard people, the Grays, the Illuminati, Knights Templar, the Free Masons, the Jews all are major role players in the universal conspiracies. Choose anyone of these or a combination of them, make some obscure claims (they want to control the world, they are controlling the media, they control the drug trade, they eat children) and there you have your conspiracy theory. This is great fun and anyone who argues about it or debate you on this only proves what you are saying. In your next book they automatically become part of this universal conspiracy to control the drug trade, or whatever you theory is.(John across the street has been living a secret life for all these years. I can now reveal the truth. He is the Vice Overlord of the Illuminati, Brooklyn branch. The evidence to prove this is…)
* Mention as many academics that you can lay your hands on, in your book. See to it that your academics are as obscure as possible. The fact that they have been ignored by the greater academic community is because they are trying to expose the “truth” (remember this “truth” must agree with your conspiracy theory) and are thus ignored, because the greater academic community is part of this universal conspiracy.
* You can also simply make up your own academics. The people who read these theories will never go and check out these academics you mention, they are too busy wearing pointy foil hats to stop the hypnotic signals send out by the CIA, making weapons out of tea bags and paper, watching TV to see if they can see George Bush change into a Lizard, etc.
* Your friends are the Bible and the prophecies of Nostradamus. Both these works are written in such an ambiguous manner that you can use any verse to prove anything. Make extensive use of both these resources in your theories.
* Don’t forget TO write RANDOM WORDS, and now and THEN whole sentences in capital letters. THIS MAKE YOUR WORK SEEM URGENT AND IMPORTANT.
The most important thing is to have fun while writing your conspiracy theory. An itchy-bitchy bit of research, a little logic and lots of creativity and you are on your way to millions. (Don’t forget to mention me in the foreword to your book.)
BUT, please, please, don’t come crying to me if you accidentally expose a real conspiracy and the Illuminati or whoever comes after you. You are on you own (don’t forget to eat this article if they catch you.).
