We assassinated the president and covered it up so that we can more easily identify conspiracy theorists.

How is there any utility in being able to identify a few crackpots—only the ones who happen to crack their pot on this one particular event? How is Identifying crackpots of any use to the state?

    Think of it like an expert playing dumb to catch someone lying about their specific field of study.

    If I go out and say I'm a former government agent who had access to the must classified of classified documents, someone has to actually look into that on the off chance it's real. If I follow by mentioning I know the truth about Kennedy, you can basically close the case there as there's no "truth" to be known.
