Just like there's a world of difference between constructive criticism being conflated with hatred, the same is true for healhty skepticism being labeled as conspiracy theory.
It's the non-thinkers that are uninterested in finding truth usually out of fear of being ridiculed, ostricized or taking a hit on self-image that exude cowardice when they pivot to safe group think that are the lesser persons within any society.
