Lol. Right, nobody is really in control. Not even aliens since they seem to even compete with each other according to some UFOlogists! (if you believe in that anyway).“
In the mid 1980's I was asked by an american legal institution known as the Christic Legal Institute to compile a comic book that would detail the murky history of the C.I.A., from the end of the second world war, to the present day. Covering such things as the heroin smuggling during the Vietnam war, the cocaine smuggling during the war in Central America, the Kennedy assasination and other highlights.
What I learned during the frankly horrifying research that I had to slog through in order to accomplish this, was that yes, there is a conspiracy, in fact there are a great number of conspiracies that are all tripping each other up. And all of those conspiracies are run by paranoid fantasists, and ham fisted clowns. If you are on a list targeted by the C.I.A., you really have nothing to worry about. If however you have a name similar to someone on a list targeted by the C.I.A., then you are dead?
The main thing that I learned about conspiracy theory, is that conspiracy theorists believe in a conspiracy because that is more comforting. The truth of the world is that it is actually chaotic. The truth is that it is not The Iluminati, or The Jewish Banking Conspiracy, or the Gray Alien Theory. The truth is far more frightening.

There are for sure conspiracies but I agree with you that our perception of them is very limited. Conspiracy culture is largely a means for people to put order on an otherwise chaotic universe. There are agendas and there are people in power that need to be exposed but ultimately people fall for a scapegoat- almost always Jews- just like the powerful pushed the Protocols in the past, to keep our eyes off them.
Thing is, people target Jews a lot because they are who they see everywhere first. Which is why the Protocols are basically viral docs in conspiracy circles. They don't seem to get that the oppressive system in place does not care who appears to be in control. During the Middle Ages the RCC appeared to control it all. Now its Jews. Tomorrow it'll be what? The system will put some other boogeyman in place and people will only see that.
