But what was even more profound was this response by:
I can't say I've ever heard the term "conspiracy therapist" before, and I see how it fits for this post as these items are therapeutic, to be sure. But, I think that term has far more potential. It's such a great comeback phrase for people who use the term "conspiracy theorist". Better than saying, "no, I'm a spoiler alertist" when people tell you that you are a conspiracy theorist. In other words, when someone says "you are a conspiracy theorist" you can rebut by saying, "no, I'm a conspiracy therapist". You can add (optional), "it's a sad truth, but people in power do conspire, so many of those theories are proven true. I'm here to help you separate the true ones from the fake ones, and I'm here to help you cope with the real ones." By saying you are a conspiracy therapist, you easily and immediately enter the premise that the existence of conspiracies are a given fact. It also establishes you as an expert with knowledge. Both of these are subtle rhetorical devices. Plus, it is easy to see how this retort could take the place of antonym in language use. Sort of like how Pro Life has become the antonym to Pro Choice. Thanks, fren, for coining this term. We should all start using it. It's taking the place of my go-to response.
