Piggybacking on Oyolar, if they controlled the world, why hide it? Why not flaunt the fact that you fucking run shit?
If only people who studied conspiracies actually put as much effort into understanding things like politics, sociology, or economonics, so many problems would be solved by now... If any conspiracy is true, its that those who actually do have political and economic power want you to study this shit so you don't actually understand the nature of power and continue feeling disempowered because you aren't in the illuminati.
