I have an idea for a TV script: I'm going to scour absolutely every YouTube and underground website on the planet that focuses on conspiracy theories and then have a character recite every single one of them. That'll take care of five or ten minutes of air time.
What intrigues me (and has well before this particular show picked up the theme) is how deeply embedded in our culture these concepts are. I'd really like to know whether this particular chicken or egg came first. So many film, and later TV series plots have revolved around alien/government conspiracies, alien origins of our species, etc., as have seriously published books. Some people make it their life work. The question I have is what was the origin of the idea. Who said it first...and why?
