    One of my friends is super liberal and keeps saying this about any criticism of capitalism. Just vote, bro.

      Sorry I don’t follow, what does he say about any criticism of capitalism? Does he believe that any competing idea constitutes a conspiracy?

        He thinks that any criticism of capitalism is a conspiracy theory, and is thus not accurate. For example if you think the legislature obeys the rich and not the public.
