A favorite jibe at "conspiracy theories" - often used by neolibs, I find - is the idea that someone would talk, someone would squeal, someone would spill the beans. They just can't bear the idea that drinking their pro-state kool-aid might be a bad freakin' idea.

The thing is: yes, people talk. And those people are then either "discredited" as kooks or done away with. It's funny to me that we get the same narrative in 2023 that Clay Shaw offered to Penthouse in 1969. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.
