Greetings all!

I'm not sure if there is a conspiracy theorists handbook as such, (There probably is although I have never seen or read one) but I thought there would be no better place than ATS to ask It's members to provide this thread with some of their own "golden rules" they think would or should be included in "A conspirators handbook" if a book ever existed.

I'll start everyone off with mine.

Follow the money trail, find the truth.

And yours?

I would start it with a definition of a conspiracy and follow it with an explanation of a theoretical conspiracy starting at the original suspicion and the investigation techniques.

A physiological treatise would be helpful also in so far as society's view of the effort affects people like us from family to friends and employers.

Most important to me is personal safety. Any first person investigation is bound to receive threats.

Such a book would be fun to read. I would include the silliness from a few years ago, when some people thought one of the big companies that makes personal hygiene products were all satanists because there was a moon or stars in their logo. May have been Colgate-Palmolive but I'm not 100% on that.

Question everything, especially authority.

Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

If MSM is talking about something trivial like Britney Spears, it's always to distract from a more important issue that people would care about.

If MSM is talking about some big game-changing event, I typically assume the opposite of everything they say and work from there.
