Or, we could reject notions of conspiracy where they are clearly ridiculous (moon landing hoax, 9/11 is a US gov't operation, Bilderbergers and Jews secretly rule the world, global warming is a crypto-socialist scheme to take away our SUVs) and embrace them where they have an explanatory power lacking other theories (Bolsheviks did secretly plot to overthrow Tsar, Reichstag fire probably was a false flag operation, Theresa Spence's diet is unlikely to produce a best-selling self-help book describing her methods).
