Thought experiment.

Here’s what a thought experiment is. You gather all the evidence, let’s call it Y. Now you form a theory, even though it may sound absurd. Does theory X make sense if all the Y evidence is true? If yes, then X is the most likely thing that is happening.

What is theory X?

Does it make logical sense that a large group of people are trying to reduce the world population? Do all these things that are going on make sense to a homicidal maniac? Yes, to a murderous lunatic, it all makes logical sense.

And so X is most likely to be true, regardless of one’s inability to accept it.
