The biggest and most truthful conspiracy is not that there's some shadowy cabal puppet masters pulling all the string, but nobody has any fucking clue what's going on and the world lives in a constant state of anarchy and our notions of "government" or "the state" is just a coping mechanism to help us believe that "somone is in control." We feel like we need to believe in it like we used to believe in the church, until the Enlightenment of course (and we all know what that entailed.)
PS Edit - Give people bread and they will realize they hold all the power, and won't need that sense of someone else being in control.
