Calling Someone A 'Conspiracy Theorist' Means You've Already Lost The Argument

The CIA weaponized the terms of "conspiracy theory" and "conspiracy theorist" in 1967 to discredit those asking pertinent, rational questions about the newly released Warren Report investigation on the assassination of JFK.

CIA record #104-10406-10110 on "Countering Criticism Of The Warren Report", Uncovered by a 1976 FOIA request from the New York Times.

CIA added pejorative connotations to the phrase "conspiracy theory". The document instructs operatives in the use of "propaganda assets" in the commercially-controlled media to undercut any criticism of the JFK assassination official narrative, especially suggestions that Oswald may not have been the "lone nut" as the Warren Commission claimed.
